Trees are amazing! They help us in so many ways. Let’s explore why we should be thankful for trees.
Can you imagine life without trees? It wouldn’t be as tasty! Trees give us yummy things like pecans, nuts, and berries. Animals like koalas munch on leaves, and pandas love bamboo shoots. We enjoy apples, cherries, and even chocolate, all thanks to trees. Trees help feed everyone, one tree at a time!
Trees make our lives comfy! They provide wood for chairs, tables, and even beds. Imagine sitting with your family around a dining table made from a tree. Trees give us the lumber to build cozy places to rest and relax.
Music wouldn’t be the same without trees! Instruments like pianos, violins, and drums are made from wood. The beautiful sounds of a cello or the beat of a drum come from trees. Trees help create the music we love to hear.
Trees make life beautiful! We use paper from trees to draw, write, and create art. Books, magazines, and signs all come from trees. Artists use paper to express their creativity, and trees inspire us to make wonderful things.
Trees make playtime fun! We fly kites and sail boats, all with the help of trees. Tall trees let us see the sky, and wood is used to make toys and sports equipment like bats. Trees help us have fun and play games.
Trees are homes for many creatures. Birds build nests in branches, and frogs find shelter in roots. Owls hoot from tree holes, and trees provide a safe place for animals to live. Trees are like cozy homes for wildlife.
Trees are essential for life! They clean our air and make the Earth rich and green. Trees need protection from storms and human activities. They provide shade and a cool breeze in forests. We should always be thankful for trees because they help keep our planet healthy.
If you love stories, why not explore more books? There’s a special library full of exciting tales waiting for you. One favorite story is “The Unicorn and Horse,” where a horse learns he’s beautiful just the way he is. Ask a grown-up to help you find more fun stories. You’ll be happy you did!
Thanks for learning about trees with us! Remember to appreciate trees every day.

**Be Thankful for Trees: How Trees Sustain Our Planet**
**First, a Tree is Food**
Would life be satisfying without trees? It would not.
Together, we have pecans to pick, nuts, berries, and bark to crunch, munch, and lick.
Leaves for a koala, bamboo shoots for a bear.
Apples and service for you, cherries and chocolate for me.
People and animals are fed, tree by tree.
**Second, a Tree is Comfort**
Would life be good without trees? It would not.
What gives you a seat? A floor for your feet.
A place you can sit with your family to eat.
A sofa, some comfy chairs, a baby’s cradle, a double-decker bed,
A dining table with a mom at the head.
Places to sit and slumber; a tree is lumber.
**Third, a Tree is Music**
Would life be melodious without trees? It would not.
Pianos and bongos, a violin and bow,
The sound of a cello, lonesome and low.
The pom-pom of a drum, a guitarist’s twangy strum.
Tree wood makes music, zing, ping, and hum.
**Fourth, a Tree is Art**
Would life be beautiful without trees? It would not.
Paper for drawing, recipes for cooks,
Signs, magazines, glorious books.
With brushes and paint or drawn by yourself,
A creation on paper displayed on a shelf.
The artist is different, but all can agree:
A tree inspires creativity.
**Fifth, a Tree is Recreation**
Would life be fun without trees? It would not.
Wear a kite swirling, boats floating by.
Tall trees reaching up help us see the sky.
Words and paddles, inches with slats,
Sports, balance, and wooden bats.
The wood shapes toys for girls and for boys.
**Sixth, a Tree is Home**
Would life be comfy without trees? It would not.
Sturdy branches to swing from, hang on, or rest.
A perfect forked branch holds a knee, a little nest.
Habitat for a frog, a burrow in roots,
A big hole for mines, say an owl’s loud hoots.
Protection and shelter under a wide leafy dome,
A place to sleep; a tree is a home.
**Seventh, a Tree is Life**
Would life be possible without trees? It would not.
Storms, fires, floods, all kinds of construction.
Trees need protection from man-made destruction.
No place for a bird, no shade, and no grief.
Trees make the Earth rich and keep our air clean.
Explore a cool forest with its pine-scented breeze.
Just remember forever to be thankful for trees.
If you don’t have books, what are you waiting for?
It’s a kid-safe, ad-free library full of storybooks brought to life.
My favorite story on books is “The Unicorn and Horse” because the horse feels like he’s not beautiful, but he actually is.
I’m going to explore more on books, and you should too.
Don’t wait around; ask your grown-up and start exploring more fun stories like these.
You’ll be glad you did. Thanks for watching!
