Book excerpt: Cleon, a crooked little tree, wants to look like the other trees in the forest so he will fit in and be accepted by those who make fun of him. Despite his grandfather's words of wisdom, Cleon doesn't like being different and blames God for making him ugly. As Grandfather continues to encourage Cleon to have faith and patience, many changes are taking place in the forest. These changes bring about wonderful new experiences, and Cleon eventually discovers that being different is truly a blessing. This engaging book is ideal for parents, teachers, and children to experience and enjoy together. Simple Bible verses are cleverly woven into the story, and we learn along with Cleon that words not only confuse, embarrass, and hurt, but they also have the power to teach, encourage, and heal. The Points to Ponder section in the back of this book uses scripture references and thought provoking questions to further stimulate our spiritual growth.
