The Tree Called Me: For the Girl Still Growing (Christian Poem, Paperback)

She has stood at the back of every photo. She has made a list of all her “too”s. This poem tells her that God planted her on purpose, and that the seasons nobody clapped for were building her roots.

The Tree Called Me follows a tree through burial, sprouting, an awkward growth spurt, a storm, and fruit that feeds strangers. Each chapter comes back to the same two words: roots first.

Inside the book:

• A rhyming poem in short chapters, including “Too Tall,” “The Cherry Tree,” “Different Blueprints” and “Fruit for Strangers”

• Scripture from the King James Version, including Psalm 1:3 and Psalm 139:14

• Tree illustrations left uncoloured on purpose, for her to finish

• Reflection questions at the end

• A page to write her name

Perfect for: daughters, granddaughters, birthdays, baptisms, Sunday school and small groups.
