Review Quotes: A beloved tree helps steady a child during a year of financial hardship in this evocative portrait of nature's grounding rhythms...Washed with fuzzy textures, carefully drafted scenes align with the subtleties of the story's socioeconomic context. Azúa Kramer and Morley successfully present a sensitive story of hope and rebirth in difficult circumstances.--Publishers Weekly
