Join us for the tale of a special leaf named Bud, whose life journey reminds us that we are all important and needed. Bud starts out as a tiny bud-small and insignificant-yet he arrives into this life with a feeling of purpose and hope. Soon he grows into a beautiful, vibrant piece of the Mighty Oak Tree, taking his place in the circle of life, and thrives as he recognizes his part in something greater. Those who have sought a children's book that gently explains the topics of life and death need look no further. The Life of Bud teaches acceptance and celebration of a life well-lived. It is a valuable addition to the reading shelves of children eight and up, and a meaningful family bedtime tale.
