Wonderful to Read Aloud
This is hands-down my favorite book to read aloud to children - to my own 2 kids and as a volunteer reader to kindergarteners and 1st graders at a local school.Children often greet me in class by shouting out the tree's name and begging me to read it to them for the nth time.It is a very charming story with a memorable ending, and the illustrations are delightful.
What is the name of the tree?
Is it Awongalama? Is it an ant hill the animals trip over? Or is it as it is in this publication, something else?

A new collection of childhood tales from around the world
The genesis for "Ten Small Tales: Stories From Around the World" came when Canadian author Celia Barker Lottridge decided the time had come to get beyond the familiar childhood stories of Little Red Riding Hood, Chicken Little, and Goldilocks and the Three Bears.So she began a search of stories from various sources around the world that had the same magical properties as our traditional favorites.The rest are ten stories for children ages 2-8 that may one day become new nursery classics, illustrated by Joanne Fitzgerald.
