Reader Description

When you pick up a book, it's hard to imagine that the pages in it started their life as a tree. This book tells you about every step in the process, from a load of logs to a roll of smooth white paper.

After you have completed the Reader

Look at the diagram on page 14. Write a sentence that describes each step in the process of making a tree into paper. Read the steps to someone in your family. Does he or she understand how a tree is made into paper?
