Whoever thought that you could have so much fun with a willow tree? In HELLO WILLOW, there is a little girl who has hours worth of fun with the willow tree in her backyard. Her imagination, stemmed from that very tree, soars to new heights as she spends the day under the long branches. In the beginning, this little girl is greeted in the morning by the willow tree swaying its branches against her window. Then she comes up with tons of different ways that she can include the willow tree in her playing. She plays that she’s a hair dresser as she twists the long branches over her head. She plays that she’s a fearless explorer waiting on the branches for an animal to pass by. The little girl comes up with tons of things to play including having a picnic in the shade, playing hide-in-seek, and even taking a nap. That’s just the beginning of what this little girl comes up with!
