摘要
Gorgeous artwork and a cumulative verse poetic technique add to this story of the life within the ancient forests of the world. The ancient forests are crucial to animals and to us. They are irreplaceable and readers will develop a deep love and appreciation for them in this book.
We need the ancient forests of the world, and we have allowed over 90 percent of them to have been cut down. But we can still save the remaining 10 percent. It takes a deep love for something in order to want to work to save it, and this book will give young readers that love for the ancient forests.
The cumulative verse format slowly builds to move readers through the forest to see the three-hundred-year-old tree, the roots, soil, underground truffles feeding the voles and mice that feed the owl and owlets that live in a hollow in the tree. The woodpecker and ants that started the hollow startle the squirrel and the marten, prey and predator running around the tree knocking the fir cones to the ground. There is a whole ecosystem in the ancient forests, and animals and humans depend on it for survival. This book will inspire young readers to love and appreciate these forests.
A perfect book for-
parents and teachers looking for homeschool supplies for kindergarten (or any grade!)
anyone looking for a book for children about trees or forest animals
anyone looking for children's books to help instill an appreciation of our planet!

《学校图书馆杂志》(School Library Journal)书评
PreS-Gr 1Structured like ``This Is the House that Jack Built,'' this environmental rhyme aims to show the interdependence of living things in the ancient forests. The pace of the poem gets bogged down a bit when readers encounter verses such as ``These are the voles and mice that tunnel,/And eat the tiny, underground truffles/That grow on roots that draw food from the soil,/To nourish the three-hundred-year-old tree/That grows in the ancient forest.'' The theme, as well, is a bit belaboredpine cones falling and startling a marten are part of the process. Acrylic paintings dominate the pages; they are mostly dark and somber and may seem slightly menacing. An introduction, in small dense print, outlines the meaning of interdependence, and a final section elaborates on the cast of characters. Not a vital purchase.Eva Elisabeth Von Ancken, Trinity Pawling School, NY (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.

A cumulative tale describing some of the inhabitants of an ancient forest begins and ends with a Douglas fir. The narrative is illustrated with acrylic paintings of the tree and of the animals, insects, and fungi dependent upon its survival. The illustrations are somewhat garish, and the text does not flow smoothly. From HORN BOOK 1995, (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.

Ages 5-8. A 300-year-old fir tree is the main character in a forest drama depicting the cycle of interdependence between plants and animals. The truffles that grow on the roots of the fir tree are food for the mice, who, in turn, are food for the owls living in the hollow of the tree that was created by a woodpecker, and so on. Reed-Jones' cumulative verse technique, which very effectively illustrates the ecological concept, will make this book a lively story-time or lap-share read-aloud as well as a good choice for choral reading. Canyon's superb double-page illustrations can be appreciated both as fine works of art and as detailed studies of forest flora and fauna. To give children an even broader view of forest ecology, use this with Lynne Cherry's Great Kapok Tree (1990), a wonderful tale of the Amazon rain forest. (Reviewed July 1995)1883220327Lauren Peterson
