Helping Hands picture book
Little Trees by the River
A read aloud picture book for kids ages 3 to 7 (Preschool to 2nd Grade). Tap Read it to me and Buzzby the bee reads each page out loud, so early readers can follow along with the words.

The first pages
On a cool spring morning, Jonah and his Kokum joined a crowd of volunteers by the river. Everyone carried shovels and tiny trees.
A park worker named Ms. Patel showed them what to do. "Dig a hole as deep as the roots," she said, "then tuck the tree in snugly."
What happens next? The rest of the story, every painted page and Buzzby's narration open with a free account.

- How do tree roots help a riverbank?
- Why are willow catkins important for bees?
