Walking through the forest a woodcutter spots an old crooked tree. He readies his axe but is surprised at what he finds among the old tree's twisted branches. What will he do? "Old Crooked Tree" is a simple story that reflects upon our perceptions of "usefulness", the value of life, however small and humankind's responsibility to the planet. Author Jessica Jacob's playful prose brought to life by Ashlea Philips' beautiful illustrations engage young readers in a timeless story that can serve as a starting point for meaningful conversation or lesson plans built around the story's subject matter.
