      GREYSTONE BOOKS

      VANCOUVER / BERKELEY

      On the top of a hill, above a beautiful meadow,

      lived a tree covered in seeds.

      The seeds were small and silent,

      but one day they would be big trees of their own,

      reaching for the sky and whispering with the wind.

      Except to shake its head, no.

      Except for one.

      to let go of its branch,

      and fly off to Who Knows Where,

      if it was going to grow big and strong.

      But the tree had a tender heart.

      It didn’t know anything about Who Knows Where.

      Besides, sometimes the tree found it lonely on the hill.

      Maybe the seed could stay after all.

      The next day, the tree was
