The children\u2019s hearts are broken, just like the willow. But wait\u2026.wait\u2026.a voice of hope asks a question: \u201cCan we grow new willows?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ah, yes. Optimism. Hope. Seeing a future of possibilities. Being resilient in spirit. I think it\u2019s a wonderful quality to cultivate in our minds, no matter how old we are.<\/p>\n<p>Suffice to say, the children take cuttings and patiently wait, caring for them, and yes, watching some of them die. Here is where a repeated line becomes a mantra of acceptance: \u201cThat\u2019s just how things go, sometimes.\u201d But each time they get back to work, continuing to care for the ones that thrive.<\/p>\n<p>While they tend the cuttings, they make other changes to their schoolyard, changes that make it a little more wild by planting native grasses and flowers that are good for pollinators and birds. Trading much of the asphalt for greening. And then one day, when the tree cuttings are ready for transplanting into the schoolyard, there are far too many. What to do? Share with members of the community, of course! And so \u201cthe old willow tree lives on,\u201d not only in their school yard, but \u201cin backyards and parks across town.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I gotta say, it made me tear up to see all the good that came out of what had originally been a tragic event. This book shows resilience in action, the best way to learn.<\/p>\n<p>And the mantra: \u201cThat\u2019s just how things go, sometimes\u201d before returning to the work that needs to be done helps build that resilience. What a perfect metaphor for facing setbacks while not giving up the fight. A perfect metaphor for furthering social change\/justice.<\/p>\n<p>Masse\u2019s appropriately earth-toned, yet vibrant and delicate artwork makes me want to get outside and work in my garden. And the metamorphosis of the schoolyard into a pollinator\u2019s paradise is inspiring. Turning barren, asphalt schoolyards into more natural places for kids to play has become a focus in many cities, as schools become more eco conscious, and people rediscover just how cooling trees and other foliage can be. This book should help kids and adults create their own visions of greener spaces to work and play.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Activities: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Check out the resources for rewilding your schoolyard and\/or backyard, offered by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenschoolyards.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Green Schoolyards America<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Make an origami <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=TTDHJdVpU8c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">butterfly bookmark<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Pair with <a href=\"https:\/\/jilannehoffmann.com\/2021\/09\/10\/the-dirt-book-perfect-picture-book-friday\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Dirt Book<\/a> by David L.
