Bud: A Tiny Leaf with a Towering Story - Hardcover

by Ann Fleming (Author), Daria Vinokurova (Illustrator)

A tiny leaf with a grand tale to tell, Bud is a heartwarming story of discovery and change. High in the swaying branches of an ancient maple tree, Bud awakens to life, marveling at the vibrant world around him. Each morning, he basks in the golden sunlight, dances in the cool breezes, and listens to the symphony of rustling leaves. Below, a lively boy named Max plays beneath the tree, filling the air with laughter and joy. Of all the sights Bud observes, Max is his favorite-a source of endless fascination and delight.

As time passes, Bud begins to notice changes within himself. His once-brilliant green starts to fade, and he feels the stirrings of curiosity about what lies beyond his perch. What exists past the safety of his tree branch? Is there more to life than the view from above?
