Chopping Down Trees

We were reading a Richard Scarry book last night. There's always a part of any Richard Scarry book that talks about all the jobs people do in the neighborhood. These are very specific jobs---like artists who create art for children's books, construction workers, surveyors for towns, teachers, captains of ships, or police officers. This particular job description was that of "lumberjack". Avery asked what lumber was, so I told him. His reply was, "Why do they cut down trees? Trees are our friends."
