Description Description **Discover the touching story of a young girl and boy and an ancient old oak tree, in this sweet picture book about friendship, growing up, and our connectedness with nature.**
Told in **minimal and poetic rhyming text** from folktale writer Dawn Casey and with **soft, romantic artwork** from illustrator Geneviève Godbout, the story introduces a girl and a boy who grow up alongside their friend, an old oak tree.
The tree is a constant presence in their lives as they play.
Inspired by their shared love for their old friend, they plant a new forest and tend to it together, **finding their feelings for one another deepening and changing alongside the growing saplings**.
As their relationship blossoms, so too does the forest.
The loving couple add three joyful children to the branches of their flourishing family tree, and **the woodland thrives and grows with them** – one living, loving family.
This **sweet and timeless tale packs an emotional punch**, showing how love is all around us, and includes instructions for how to plant an acorn and grow your own oak tree, wistfully reflecting the beauty of nature and family.
A beautiful and romantic picture book from the author and illustrator pairing behind the bestselling _Apple Cake_. A celebration of love and connectedness with nature, this book is printed on environmentally friendly 100% recycled paper. It’s a calming read for kids and a lovely reminder that nature connects us all and of the touching harmony between us as people. A great gift for Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day or just as a touching keepsake for loved ones.
