informative inspiring reflective fast-paced

5.0

This book is a quick but fascinating read. It is well organized, with lots of information and context. It is structured around the months of the year and the ecological events that happen around an oak tree during each month. It has definitely inspired me to plant oak trees in my own yard and I have gained a new appreciation for bugs as well.
