Summary
In this delightful exploration of the seasons in nature, an oak tree and its animal inhabitants change and grow over the course of a year - just like their human neighbors! A large oak tree stands near an empty house. Like the house, it provides shelter and a place to raise a family. From its branches to its roots, six animals share the tree as a home. We follow the tree and the animals - a raccoon, opossum, acorn weevil, gray squirrel, blue jay, chipmunk - through the four seasons. Meanwhile, in the illustrations, we watch as a human family moves into the empty house, grows and adapts over time. Trees and animals - including humans! - follow life cycles across the seasons. Kids will love exploring nature's parallel lives
