<b>A “gently humorous and thoroughly recognizable” (<i>Publishers Weekly</i>, starred review) picture book meditation on what makes a home, what makes a family, and how a magical tree can hold everything—and everyone—together.</b><br><br>Nothing ever really happens at Penny’s house. It’s all hurry in and hurry out again. But then, something wonderful and unexpected appears that gets everyone’s attention. It starts out small, just a seed, then grows and grows until it’s simply too big to ignore: a tree!<br> <br>Every day, the tree gets a little taller, a little leafier, and a lot more special. And every day, as they care for the tree, Penny’s family starts to hurry out less and stay in more. Could something else be shifting in Penny’s house, something much more than a tree?
