The Man Who Planted Seeds

 Illustrations 

Inspired by Winnie The Pooh classics, I decided to use soft watercolors to illustrate this book for Missy.  The story follows a boy who becomes curious about a local Shepard and why he has chosen such a lonely life. The boy befriends him for a time, and learns the man is trying to restore a ruined, and largely abandoned Alp valley by single-handedly cultivating a forest, by planting acorns.  Years later the boy returns to find the Shepard, and realizes he is the reason that the valley has been turned into a Garden of Eden. Beautiful hardcovers are available on Lulu.
