Abstract

In this healing story, a little tree loses some of her branches in a storm. She experiences emotions of fear, self-blame, and worry so common to children facing serious medical problems. The little tree in the forest survives the storm and learns that although many branches and leaves were lost, she still has deep roots, a strong trunk and a beautiful heart. Children will discover that they too have strengths and abilities for living happy lives. A relaxation exercise is included.
