a tiny story for your week

November 19, 2012

while keeping atlas company on the couch, i am amusing myself by writing tiny stories.

since this week is a holiday week in the states, and i know many children are on vacation, i thought i’d share one of them. it’s about a boy named jack and a wandering tree.

feel free to read it yourself, read it to children you love (or have them read it to you), or pass it along.

children, you know, are the original wide-eyed wonderers.

click on the link below to open the story. it’s in a nice little pdf, ready for reading or saving or printing.

  2. So wonderful! I love every word of it. Malidoma says all trees can walk but to actually see it happen!… what a gift!

    Thank you for sharing Jack’s story. :)
