Book Synopsis

Winner of the Prestigious Mom's Choice Awards!

From a little acorn tossed about to a budding sapling that becomes a strong oak tree, the strength and determination nature models for us are likened in this story to all those who have ever faced a fear of the unknown, uncertainty about new places, or nervousness over making new friends.

Acorn Adventures is a heartwarming tale and a beautiful testament to the resilience of nature while drawing a parallel to children of all ages. This story gives every "new kid in class" the comfort of knowing that new places can bring friendly faces, that feelings of not belonging won't last forever, and reassurance that change isn't always bad. It beckons the hearts of those who feel different or don't fit in and reminds them that everyone has a place and a space to be who they are meant to be. Change can be scary, but our will to overcome obstacles and grow is a superpower we all possess. With love and persistence, like the little acorn, we all find where we belong and have a story of how we got there.
