The Growing-up Tree

(3) PS Alfred's mother plants some apple seeds when he is a baby; when he turns one, "his baby apple tree was exactly his height." Following both boy and tree through youth and maturity to death and the continuation of life through their descendants, this book is a gentle portrayal of the cycles of life. Bright watercolor illustrations show Alfred and the tree throughout the seasons.
