In the heart of the meadow, there are whispers of change. The animals, bees, and butterflies know it. But the leaves in the birch tree aren't quite sure yet what's happening. As they turn from vibrant green to golden yellow, the wind calls them to let go and discover a world beyond their branches. Most of the leaves joyfully embrace the journey, floating high above hills, streams, and animals before settling under a blanket of winter snow. But one little leaf, afraid of the unknown, clings tightly to its twig, growing colder and lonelier with each passing day.
Winter turns to spring, and the little leaf must make a choice: continue to hold on . . . or let go and embrace a new adventure. Lyrical, poignant, and beautifully illustrated, Once Upon a Tree, There Was a Change is a tender tale of courage, new beginnings, and the wonder of nature's cycles.
