Seeds and Trees by Kristen and Kevin Howdeshell, Brandon Walden

5.0

This is a gorgeously illustrated and elegantly written book that talks about how kind and cruel things said to us can grow and linger, using the metaphor of green seeds and dark seeds. I love how it goes into depth about how the darkness can grow and overshadow the good, but a good friend can help you root out the bad through a lot of hard work and effort. It also emphasizes the active choice to throw away the dark seeds, and is overall an excellent allegory for teaching how our words affect others and ourselves.
