The Story of a Sweet Gum

The Story of a Sweet Gum is a lovely ode to nature, telling the seemingly simple tale of a seed that, over time, grew into a strong tree. Deeper than that, it’s a meditation, an ecology lesson, and a story of transformation and growth.

Young readers will get lost in the magnificent hand-painted artwork and be met there with profound and important words teaching lessons of patience, stillness, and attention.
