The recording of a Vermont family that makes maple syrup annually, beautful pictures and sensory experiences
This book is a combination of describing the process of making maple syrup from early spring when the sap rises, to winter when the sap is regenerating for the spring sap rising, and a pictorial and simple telling of the process a family in Vermont undertakes annually to make their maple syrup. The pictures are simply gorgeous of the horses in the snow as they break the trails and bring in the sap to begin the sugaring process. This book features the family of Dr. Don Lacey, his wife Alice, and their children Jonathan, Angie, Jeremy, and their friend Max, as they go through the process of tapping trees, hanging buckets, gathering sap, and participate in the first run of making maple syrup. This is a warm and informative story of the Lacey family sugaring traditions and the time proven process of making maple sugar. As you read the words and view the pictures, you can almost feel the cold, smell the woodsmoke, and taste the sugary maple syrup. This book is a delight for the mind, the eyes, and the senses. It makes you wish you could really be there to enjoy the experience of making maple syrup.

Learn about maple syrup production in a personal way
This book follows the process of making syrup, from maple trees to the breakfast table, from the perspective of a family member. The photos bring the story home. You can feel the biting winter weather, see the flowing sap, and appreciate how so much sap reduces down to a precious, relatively small amount of syrup. Our school recommends this book for second grade. Though there may be more reading involved than a younger child would want to do, it is worthwhile to read it with, or read it to, your second grade student. Don't miss this "How It's Made" adventure in book form!

making maple syrup...
Such a great book. I remember the family on the farm next to my gram's taking me out on chilly mornings with the hairy footed clydesdales pulling the big bin to collect the buckets of sap to take back to the sugar house to boil. What a fun time. We would boil the sap till it turned to syrup and then boil it till it balled up. We'd pour it over packed snow and make a maple candy like a caramel. Great memories, great little book.
