With her fresh prose, the author skillfully transports the reader to Maple Community where people very similar to us—except they are little—live inside a tree. This amazing book flows smoothly, capturing the imagination of the reader as she creates a fascinating world, one that is foreign, and yet familiar to us at the same time. This is a rich tale of life, relationships, and challenges as seen through the eyes of a young girl—who is gently guided by Michael, a kindly higher being in the background of the story.
When the curiosity and will to explore by two raucous twins—who try to follow their uncle into the outside world—ends up threatening the entire community, Adi must rise to the occasion. Full of life’s lessons, she discovers the power within herself as she helps save the day. Along the way she learns to cope with the loss of a friend and discovers the healing power of a journal to capture and express one’s thoughts.
In this delightful and entertaining story, author Jo-Marie has succeeded in developing a unique setting and story that will inspire young readers and help them understand that both teamwork and individual strength are important. They will discover how one’s actions affect everyone.
It is well done and I highly recommend this book for young readers in grades 4 through 8, or younger with the help of an adult. I look forward to more adventures of Adi and her community and to sharing them with my 10 year old grandson. Escaping into the pages of wonderful book like this can be a fun adventure, especially when shared.
