Publisher Description

Morning dawned and already word had spread that the seed of promise was to be called Little Oakley.
As Papa Oak watches his last acorn fall to the ground, he is filled with mixed emotion; a sense of sadness mingled with joy and anticipation for the new life that is to come. He is honored to nurture Little Oakley's growth through song, and be his strength during life's hard lessons. As time passes, the tables turn, and Little Oakley is the one who supports Papa as gusts from Wise Old Puff cause his aging limbs to quiver. Sadness is once again eclipsed by joy as another acorn falls, this time from Little Oakley, and the two are able to watch a new generation begin again.
Reminiscent of the beloved classic, Love You Forever by Robert Muncsh, this book illustrates the circle of life through beautiful imagery that is greatly enhanced by gorgeous artwork and is a gift for all ages.
