(  ) brandaman | Jan 25, 2008 |  I liked the pictures but I did not like the way the author keep saying "next time you see the tree" but no time limit or duration. I could see it today, and tomorrow and all that change would have taken place? (  ) magnetic.gaze | Oct 28, 2007 |  no reviews | add a review

| Book description |
|
Deep in the forest . . .
A bear sharpens her claws on a tree trunk. The scratched bark chips; a tiny hole forms. Timber beetles tunnel inside. The hole grows bigger and bigger.
In lyrical prose, Barbara Brenner reveals the fascinating happenings in one small place. She explains how, over many years, the rough hole transforms into a cozy hollow -- home to salamanders, tree frogs, a family of white-footed mice. Tom Leonard’s absorbing illustrations take you beneath the bark to a hidden world. His warm, lifelike depictions of squirrels and bluebirds, snakes and spiders show the splendor that dwells in the most unexpected places.
So stop. Observe. Explore your natural world. If you look closely enough, you will surely find . . . one small place that is home for something.
