Hugging Tree: A Story about Resilience

A little tree grows all alone on a cliff, by a vast and mighty sea. Through thundering storms and the cold of winter, the tree holds fast.

Sustained by the natural world and the kindness and compassion of one little boy, eventually the tree grows until it can hold and shelter others. The resilience of the Hugging Tree calls to mind the potential in all of us: To thrive, despite times of struggle and difficulty. To nurture the little spark of hope and resolve. To dream and to grow, just where we are. A Note to Parents and Caregivers by Elizabeth McCallum, PhD, provides more information about resilience, as well as guidelines for building resilience in children.
