Beatrice And The Story Tree

At the bottom of the garden, beyond the old wall, grows the biggest oak Beatrice has ever seen. When its bark seems to whisper "Come turn the first page...", she does the only thing a curious girl can do - she climbs.High in the branches, Beatrice discovers the tree is keeping secrets: a unicorn who has lost her golden horseshoe, a mermaid who has lost her pearl, a dragon who has lost his firestone, and a king who has lost the most important thing of all - a word he needs to remember. And somewhere at the very top, among hundreds of lost treasures, a phoenix is waiting to explain the tree's magic.As Beatrice returns each lost treasure, she discovers that being lost doesn't mean you're forgotten - and that courage isn't the absence of fear, but choosing to act even when your knees wobble.Why families will love it: - A warm, lyrical rhyming story - perfect for reading aloud at bedtime.- 40 pages of hand-painted, watercolour-style illustrations in a classic storybook style.- A kind, hopeful message about courage, memory and helping others.- Seven memorable characters - a brave girl, a whispering oak, a unicorn, a mermaid, a dragon, a king and a phoenix.Beatrice and the Story Tree is a keepsake picture book for children who love magic, gentle adventure, and stories that linger long after the last page.
