Whispers of the Old Oak A Forest Fable About the Quiet Power of Elders In a golden-tinged woodland where magic drifts on every falling leaf, the forest prepares for its most cherished tradition: the Festival of the Falling Leaves. Flick and Pip, two spirited chipmunk brothers, want to make this year's celebration fast, fun, and flashy. But when the forest's magic falters and the leaves refuse to fall, they turn to the ones they have overlooked-Grandma Tilda the wise old tortoise and Papa Bramble the gentle bear. Together, they discover that some of the deepest magic is slow, quiet, and carried in the stories of those who came before. Full of cozy autumn charm, glowing forest imagery, and timeless lessons, Whispers of the Old Oak is a heartfelt chapter book about the gift of aging, the importance of listening, and the legacy of love passed down through generations. Perfect for family reading, classroom story circles, and anyone who's ever been changed by the wisdom of an elder.
