Review

As a Parent Educator, I found this book to contain a valuable lesson for children, while being interesting and holding their attention. The book could also foster a child's imagination. It is the story of three trees, Pokey, Oscar and Ace who are growing side by side. The trees are pine, acorn and maple and although they are different, they become friends. They go through difficulties but help each other and find that working together is best. One day they discover that their roots have grown together without them knowing it. The book is a fun way to give children the message that life is better when we accept each other's differences and work together. I recommend this book.
