HOPE Inc. presents to you an inspiring children's story about a little girl who was teased because she looked different from everyone else.  She overcame her fears and loneliness through faith and love.  The story will inspire young readers and adults to treat others with kindness, respect and dignity.  We believe the book has a profound message:  "That each of us has the power to make a positive difference in someone's life".  The book can also be used to instill the compassion and love of Jesus in the hearts of children in their everyday life by asking readers to take the time to do something nice for someone.  The last page of the book includes a removable card that says "One act of kindness can make a difference, pass it on"

The Tree Girl can be purchased as a bedtime story or by teacher's in Christian schools looking for educational resources or by those actively participating in children's liturgy programs.
