Celebritrees; Historic and Famous Trees of the World

Celebritrees: Historic and Famous Trees of the World
Trees are the largest plants on earth.  This book introduces readers to fourteen famous trees from all around the world--from Methuselah (a bristlecone pine) to General Sherman (a sequoia), to the Tule Tree in Mexico, the Bodhi Tree in Sri Lanka, and the Boab Prison Tree in Australia. Written by Margi Preus, with acrylic, watercolor, and pencil illustrations by Rebecca Gibson, this might be a resource for 'tree' units in elementary science classes.
