The story

About The Tree That Found Its Roots

A young tree questions its purpose, and what makes it different from the others in the forest. As the people around it give it name after name, the tree begins a journey inward, and discovers that knowing where you come from is the beginning of knowing who you are.

Told through the wisdom of the natural world and rooted in African oral tradition, this is a story families return to, because the question it asks grows along with the child reading it.
