The day they took me out of my home and loaded me onto a truck changed everything. I went from living surrounded by nature, with my brothers, to ending up girdled by towering buildings in a polluted, noisy city. I was homesick. Accepting that change was extremely difficult, but then I started to realize that the city was not that bad after all. A friendly gardener took care of me. He watered my soil, gave me fertilizer, and trimmed my dry branches so that a pair of finches could nest in them. I began to feel very useful, as I gave people my shade, my oxygen, and my gently-flavored seeds. I soon understood that hope and love could manifest anywhere in the world, so I decided to put down roots.
A story that invites us to see adversities as opportunities, and to trust that changes, despite surprising us, can help us grow.
Ganador de la medalla de oro en los premios Moonbeam Children's Book Awards. Mudarse de ciudad puede ser una experiencia angustiosa, pero también es una oportunidad para crecer. Este abedul se dará cuenta que aunque uno se encuentre en uno de los momentos más oscuros, uno puede brillar más que nunca.El día que me sacaron de casa y me transportaron en camión a la ciudad lo cambió todo. Pasé de vivir rodeado de naturaleza, con mis hermanos, a acabar rodeado de edificios altísimos en una ciudad llena de contaminación. Aceptar ese cambio me costó mucho, pero pronto me di cuenta de que la ciudad también tenía su parte positiva. Un amable jardinero se ocupó de mí. Abonó mi suelo con ricos nutrientes, me suministró agua y me cortó las ramas secas para que pareja de jilgueros construyese su nido en mí. Empecé a sentirme muy útil para las personas al darles mi sombra, mi oxígeno y mis frutos, y entonces entendí que la esperanza y el amor se podían manifestar en cualquier lugar del mundo, así que decidí echar raíces.
Una historia que nos invita a contemplar las adversidades como oportunidades, y a confiar en que los cambios, a pesar de sorprendernos, pueden ayudarnos a crecer.
