Set around an old oak tree, two groups of children find themselves at odds with each other. As cross words stop their play, can the children find a resolution to share their special place and turn strangers into friends again?

This stunning picture book emphasises the importance of imagination, communication, resolutions and forgiveness. A great book for reminding children, of all ages, about outdoor play and social interactions. This could be linked to forest school learning, or playtime and downtime, social skills and imaginative play, which is not focused on as much in society today.

A great book that could be used throughout the primary phase to support imaginative play, social skills, communication skills and resolutions. A heartwarming story about the value of teamwork, second chances and the healing power of a meaningful apology.
