As a confirmed tree-lover who has also enjoyed the previous titles featuring this wonderful guide, I was almost guaranteed to appreciate Crinkleroot's Guide to Knowing the Trees, and sure enough, I ended up loving it. It is both educational and entertaining, with plenty of information for young naturalists and a personable (one might even say, lovable) guide to present that information. Author/illustrator Jim Arnosky's central idea in this series of books - having a delightfully eccentric, almost gnome-like guide provide the relevant information - was inspired. It gives an almost fairy-tale like feeling to what are otherwise non-fiction books, which is atypical. The accompanying artwork, done in pen and ink and watercolor, is absolutely charming, beautifully capturing the wonders of the natural world and the appeal of Crinkleroot himself. Recommended to all young tree lovers, and to fans of Crinkleroot himself. ( )
