Acorns are the oak seeds whose abundance feeds bears, boars, birds, and beetles.Some acorns are the size of cupcakes while others help turn jays into the brainiacs of the animal kingdom. Lively and engaging, this book celebrates the acorn's role in forest ecology and human history, sharing many fascinating storiesof adaptation, endurance, and epic survival. Acorns--small but mighty and always newsworthy.

The Studies in Nature series offers close observations, passionate research, and natural obsessions on a variety of nature-related topics. Featuring illustrations by Stacy Hsu and black and white photography, they offer big ideas in a small, giftable, and collectible package.
