Time Tree

In this charming anthology of stories by Alicia Klepeis listeners will be guided into forests to meet the amazing animals that live there. In one story a squirrel hunts for an elusive acorn it buried earlier in the year, while another looks at an Alaskan wood frog as it freezes itself alive to survive a harsh winter. Children will be thrilled by the tale of a reindeer that gets separated from its herd in the snowy woods of Scandinavia, and marvel at a chameleon changing color in the forests of Madagascar.

Awaking to a warm morning in the forest, Turnip and Brie are two hungry cubs who venture out of their snug cave in search of the fruits of summer. This story of independence and neighborly care depicts the delight that comes from discovering new places, while finding companionship and community. Join these two cubs on an adventurous romp through the woods as they stumble upon a secret garden and make connections both old and new.
