 \nAll these questions and more will be answered inThe Maple Syrup Book.You will learn how to tap atree,how to turn sap into syrup,and how fast sapruns.By the end,you'll know why the maple is amighty and marvellous tree.  \n(Note:Words that look like this —photosynthesis —are defined for you in the Glossary which begins onpage 45.)  \n# A Natural Sugar Factory\n\nNext time you reach for a jug of maple syrup for yourpancakes,think about where your syrup came from.Itcame from the maple tree,an amazing natural sugar-making factory.Using energy from the sun—solarenergy—it makes a sweet,watery syrup called sap.Why does the maple tree make this sweet sap?  \n## Tree food\n\nTrees need food too,especially during the spring andsummer when they do most of their growing.Theymake a high-energy sugar inside the leaves by aprocess called photosynthesis.  \nThe sugar mixes with water that the tree's rootshave absorbed from the ground,to make a waterysap.This sap flows through the tree and feeds it,helping it to grow,bear new leaves,and stay healthy.  \nWhen the tree stops growing in the autumn,itdoesn't need any more sap food.The leftover sapstays in the tree all winter.It freezes in a layer ofwhite wood called sapwood in the tree's trunk andbranches.  \nIn the spring,as the days and nights get warmer,the frozen sap thaws out and moves to wherever it isneeded by the tree for growing.That's when we saythe sap is running.  \n## Super sap\n\nMany trees produce sugary sap,and long ago severalkinds of trees were tapped for their sap.But today youwon't find oak syrup or butternut syrup,only maplesyrup.That's because maple trees produce sweeter s","cbCairhQQztEgEKM","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairhQQztEgEKM","pdf",3524610,52,"English","# Table of Contents\n## Introduction\n## A Natural Sugar Factory\n## Tree food\n## Super sap","[{\"question\":\"Where does maple syrup come from?\",\"answer\":\"Maple syrup comes from the maple tree.
