A Poetic Journey of Wonder, Courage, and Hope
What if the moon could grow trees and every dream you planted there could bloom into something beautiful?

Perfect for bedtime reading, classroom story time, or quiet moments when you want to plant seeds of hope, this story encourages families to talk about courage, imagination, and the beauty of dreaming through uncertainty.
It’s a thoughtful gift for teachers, caregivers, and families — especially those navigating times of change or medical uncertainty.
