How can something stay itself and yet change and grow? The oak tree shows us how.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSometimes things happen by chance. A blue jay drops an acorn, a lucky acorn that happens to fall in just the right place and begins to grow. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThough it begins life as a tiny part of the forest floor, the acorn soon grows large enough to provide shelter for a fox, host for insects that in turn provide food for songbirds, and a home for many small creatures. Animals hibernate in its branches and among its roots, and humans rest in the cool shade it provides. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs generations of living things pass by the tree, the forest develops, and a town begins to grow. And the lucky tree is always there, though its form and size change. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this picture book about the life cycle of a tree and the plants and animals that depend upon it, Henry Cole reminds us, in elegant prose and stunning black \u0026amp; white illustrations, of the importance of interconnectedness and the passage of time. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eA Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 1682637336\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9781682637333\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Cole, Henry\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Peachtree Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Peachtree Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover (Apr 2025)","offer_id":46080496206021,"sku":"9781682637333","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9781682637333.jpg?v=1776037886","url":"https:\/\/www.inveni.store\/products\/mighty-the-story-of-an-oak-tree-ecosystem","provider":"Inveni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
