Aspen's Roots
Aspen, a pretty, young sapling, was new and carefree. She felt happy with her place in the earth amidst the wonders of nature until a change of seasons; great winds and cold landscape made her bare and thoughtful. With time to ponder and feel, she came to know the strength of roots that connected her to a bigger picture of family. Aspen soon learned that 'I'm not alone, it's not just me, I'm part of a family, a big family tree.' Aspen's Roots is a beautifully illustrated story of connections and service, speaking to children and adults alike. It proves a unique children's story and art book, written to inspire.
