The Faraway Seed

This beautifully illustrated story teaches children about the importance of understanding and accepting change and difference in all people. A perfect forest grew tall and proud on the land. One day a bird from a faraway place flew over the forest and dropped a different seed. The other trees in the forest didn't like this 'difference' and did everything in their power to block the little tree's growth. But slowly they learn that we were all, at some point, a seed from a faraway place. As seen on ABC's PlaySchool . "A forest stood tall and proud, all its trees the same. One day a bird dropped a new seed in the forest and a different tree. Will the forest accept the new tree? With the theme being multiculturalism, acceptance and celebration of difference, this is the story of a little seed's journey to acceptance against all obstacles laid out by the forest, eventually making the forest not so 'perfect' but very, very beautiful with its diversity and loveliness."--Provided by publisher
