This day is known as Arbor Day and is officially observed on the last Friday of April. On this day, everyone is encouraged to plant and/or take care of a tree in their neighborhood. How it All Began A Nebraska man named J. Sterling Morton, who was a settler from Detroit, originally started Arbor Day in 1872. The very first Arbor Day was held on April 10th of that year and it is believed that more than one million trees were planted statewide. Arbor Day wasnt celebrated again until 1874 but it proved to be so popular that it was officially declared a state holiday in 1885. Nebraska chose April 22nd, Mortons birthday, as the official date. Since then, many other states have followed suit and declared their own Arbor Day. While the majority officially celebrate in April, the observed day can fall anywhere between January and May depending on the planting conditions in that particular state. Nationally, President Nixon made the last Friday in April the official Arbor Day date for the entire country in 1970.

The colorfully illustrated step-by-step instructions are great for preschoolers and lower elementary grades.

Extractions: "I think Arbor Day is even more important here," says Betty Nelson, urban forestry coordinator for Phoenix's parks and recreation department. "Especially in a desert city, we need to emphasize the importance of planting trees for all their benefits - shade, cooling effects, the oxygen they supply, providing homes for birds and wild animals, how they help get rid of pollution, and the esthetic beauty we love."
