But when one of his friends grows tired of his tall tales, Thomas has to prove how skilled he really is. Taking the challenge to spend a night alone in the forest, Thomas heads into the wilderness. The trees, who have heard his stories, watch him tear off their bark and litter as he goes. And so, while Thomas sleeps, they dance a dance that will leave Thomas with a very different kind of story to tell--if he can find his way home...

Book Synopsis The Dancing Tree's Secret by : Anne Smith
Download or read book The Dancing Tree's Secret written by Anne Smith and published by . This book was released on 2022-12-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dancing Tree's Secret is poem-story about three trees that grow together in the woods. The mother tree, portrayed as a Dancing Tree, has two daughters- a Singing Tree and a How Come? Tree, who dance, sing and seek answers to life throughout the four seasons. This natural setting becomes the stage upon which these three characters choreograph universal themes of life and death within a very poignant and unique context. The gorgeous illustrations are inspired by photos of NYC ballet students costumed as trees, and the book includes a glossary of ballet terms. This unique and spiritual portrayal of death-as-transformation transcends religious or traditional approaches to grief and loss, while opening the door to a very difficult subject with ease and grace. As the three trees grow, the children who play in the woods give them their names and the reader learns more about the tree's personalities; but one day, the trees are cut down to clear the forest. The children who watched the trees grow up are now adults with children of their own. They watch as the trees are made into logs and carried away.As they are transported to the lumberyard, the daughter trees ask their mother about what has just happened to them. Will they stay together? Have they stopped growing? Are they still trees? Can they still feel the wind? The Dancing Tree reveals the secret she has known all of her life: dancing means changing form in time and space. Ultimately, a new home is built in the clearing of the forest where the three trees once lived; inside the home, it is revealed that the trees have been made into wooden objects whose forms retained the specificity of their personalities as trees: The Dancing Tree becomes a cradle, the Singing Tree a wooden flute, and the How Come? Tree a child's toy chest that contains puzzles and games that question and challenge young minds. Praised by noted choreographers, grief counselors, child psychologists and clergy, The Dancing Tree's Secret will find its way into the hearts of children, parents, educators, and tree-lovers everywhere.
