White pines have long been my favourite treethey are compelling, beautiful, and strong. While tethered to the earth, it also seems as if they could break loose at any moment and soar. This story was inspired by a recent visit to the Big Pines Trail at Algonquin Park in Ontario, Canada. My husband and I were struck by both the grandeur of the big pines and the rich history. I finally put pen to paper, and my husband painted the picture on the back cover. I did want to present this more as a childrens book and was fortunate to work with Harriet Kim Anh Rodis, a graphic illustrator from the Philippines.
