On the day beloved Old Oak falls, the creatures of the forest gather to show their gratitude for all of the ways she served their community, and discover her life is just beginning.
A charming story about the lifecycle of a mother tree and the creatures who rely on her.
Just like that, Old Oak’s rooted life came to an end.
Even with her tap root severed, Old Oak would bring new life to the forest.
