Seven stories. Seven golden threads to follow.
Each book explores a different life theme — identity, decisions, uncertainty, patience — through the richness of African folklore and the wisdom of the natural world. Every title comes with its own original musical score.
In the first book, all the characters are introduced through their encounter with The Tree. Pay close attention, and you might spot how the threads weave through each character’s own journey.
