The Branch by Mireille Messier
4.0
Repurposing.
Memories.
That is basically what this book is about. Well, yes, this book is about a branch that falls during an ice storm, but it is really about the memory of the branch, what the branch had, and what it would have now that it was not part of the tree.
Thanks to the help of her neighbor, the little girl is able to make something else of the branch, something that can continue to be with her, now that the branch is not part of the tree. I liked that the girl make the swing with the help of her neighbor, but that he didn't do all the work for her.
This is a good way to honor the branch that was.
