| THREE TREES THAT I KNOW John L. Turner 9 The chestnut tree comes from a chestnut. It grows very big and tall and makes good shade. It has long green leaves and its bloom is long and white. The chestnuts get ripe in the fall and they are good to eat. The oak tree comes from an acorn. It gets very big. It gets acorns on in the summer. They fall out of their cups when the frost comes. The cedar tree is green all winter. It is pretty and people sometimes plant it in their yards. At Christmas they take it for Christmas trees. |
