Trees! Trees! And more trees! They are big and beautiful and all around us! A little park ranger girl wants to explore them all—trees both tall and small; trees that give us fruit or shade or a place to climb or sit beneath. Trees do so much for us and the planet. Do you want to care for them just like they care for us and make the Earth a better place? Then say it with her: "More trees, please!"
