One beautiful book to add to your summer reading list is The Tale of Three Trees by Angela Elwell Hunt.
The story follows three trees, each with dreams for their future. As their lives unfold, none of those dreams come true in the way they expected. Yet each tree discovers that God’s plan was far greater than anything it could have imagined.
This timeless story reminds us that while life doesn’t always go according to our plans, God is always at work. It offers a wonderful opportunity to talk with children about faith, hope, and trusting God’s purpose for our lives.
As summer begins, consider reading The Tale of Three Trees as a family and reflecting on this simple but powerful message: God’s plans are often greater than our own.
