Britta has 2 favorite trees, Apple and Magnolia. She is sure the trees are best friends. One day, Magnolia loses her leaves and her bark turns grey - Britta is sure she is sick. Her Nana has told her that unusual friendships are special, so Britta devises a plan for Apple to help Magnolia.
A sweet story about how love makes a difference, Britta's father and sister are naysayers, but Britta soldiers on and believes in the power of friendship. The text is lyrical and the whimsical illustrations are darling. Includes a link to teaching resources about how trees communicate.
