This book is a simple explanation of how green leaves change colors. Watch as the leaves soak up water, take in carbon dioxide, and absorb the sun's rays -- all to make food! As the hours of daylight shorten, the tree makes less food, and leaves begin to die. The chlorophyll in the leaves fades away, and their colors change to reds, yellows, and oranges that signal the arrival of Autumn.Zoehfeld, Kathleen Weidner is the author of 'Leaves Change Colors (Scholastic Science Readers): Level 1 - Kathleen Weidner Zoehfeld - Paperback - Level 1' with ISBN 9780439269865 and ISBN 0439269865.
