Sinossi
Sapevate che l'albero di gingko esisteva già ai tempi dei dinosauri? O che ci vogliono 50 anni perché si formi il petrolio? O che il larice europeo è l'unica conifera che in inverno perde gli aghi? In Arborama potrete scoprire 30 ritratti, magnificamente illustrati, di alberi che si possono trovare vicino a casa vostra, se non proprio nel vostro giardino ma anche nelle città, nei parchi, in montagna o nella foresta. Ogni scheda è accompagnata da illustrazioni realistiche, istruzioni dettagliate per l'osservazione (foglie, fiori, corteccia) e moltissime informazioni utili per diventare dei veri esploratori dell'ambiente circostante, che spesso non notiamo neanche. Infine, un capitolo svela altri segreti del mondo degli alberi: come respirano, si riproducono, comunicano tra loro. Età di lettura: da 7 anni.

Not content with producing a whole non-fiction book for young audiences of all ages, this creator has had to work to allow this book to come out for an entirely different market. Sure, a lot of it can have been produced for both Europe and North America, and so the early chapters that look to the bi Leggi tutto

This is a great resource for those wanting to learn more about trees. The images are detailed and so is the information given. I also liked how the author added blurbs about the history or usage of some tree species, such as how to extract syrup from the sugar maple.
