A beautiful book about a tree who does not want to drop his leaves and embrace the seasonal changes.

Evaluation

Loren Long is probably my new favorite author. Every book she writes is packed with metaphors and even deeper intentions. This particular book is not just about the passing of seasons but learning to let go of "what is" so that "what can be" can develop into something far greater. As we begin to fine tune who we are as humans and life changes around us, we begin to change too andn sometimes that change is hard to embrace, but when we do, it is all worth it in the end.
