Product Description
The evergreen tree is a symbol for hope and healing for people all around the world. This beautifully illustrated book combines modern day and ancient settings to tell the story of why the evergreen tree is so special.
While out picking evergreen needles, 9-year-old Zoey's grandmother tells her the story of Bear Heart, a man who lived long ago. A beloved member of his community, Bear Heart was known for his kindness and generosity.
As he grew old, he worried about his people. He asked the Great Spirit to help his people even after he was gone. The Great Spirit turned Bear Heart into an evergreen tree, so that he would stay green and vibrant all year long. His people gathered around him and shared laughter and stories. To this day, they communicate their prayers and hopes by burning the needles of the evergreen tree.
