I understand the ecological message that this book was trying to express but unfortunately the simple text didn't make sense. It was supposed to be 'this leads to that, and that leads to this, and this leads to that, etc.' but some of the connections weren't obvious, which defeated the purpose. The illustrations were the best part.

I love the information this book provides at the end of the story and its potential to spark research projects.
pickWhile the picture book side of this story is a fun, simple way of showing how everything in an ecosystem is connected, the part of this book I love the most is at the end. At the conclusion of the book the author gives information on acorns and what they produce and how the readers can help protect acorns.
