He wasn't always known as the Wisdom Tree.
Like my life, and maybe yours too,
his life began in a most ordinary way.
This parable reveals how his choices, and
the faithfulness of his worm friend,
were all woven together
by the loving hands of the Master of the Garden
into something completely extraordinary.
Even today, just outside Jerusalem,
there is a garden of olives known as Gethsemane.
If you go there, listen closely
you might just hear a descendant of the Wisdom Tree whisper
"Trust,
believe, and
look up."

Sometimes compared to the writing style of Max Lucado, this story magnifies the sovereignty of God in the smallest of creatures.
A special little seed, and a wise old worm experience the trials of life alongside the Master of the Garden, Who never leaves or forsakes them.
Half parable, and half Bible study (with biblical answers to the most basic and some difficult questions in Christianity), this is a great book for
- Bible study groups,
- book clubs,
- homeschool, and
- personal growth toward a deeper understanding of how the hand of God continually works in our lives.

It's like reading Max Lucado
"I can pick it up and read it over and over... "
the power to be a classic,
up there with C.S. Lewis’ Narnia.
Review by The Christian Bookaholic here
Beautifully written
What a beautiful job the author did in describing the life
of an olive tree and the Biblical events that happened as it grew! It is a book for all ages and in addition, it
includes questions at the end of each chapter and a helpful study guide at the
end.

A simple, but yet
intriguing, beautifully written book that will inspire every reader.
"It will
guide you through the love of the Master in a unique way that helps every age
understand the care of the Gardener. It leads us all to the truth of trusting,
believing and looking up to Him.”

Thought-provoking parable
"Readers will be
enchanted as they follow the story of this tree from seedling to an olive tree
in the Garden of Gethsemane. Along with his faithful friend, the worm, the two
experience a life that goes from ordinary to the extraordinary.”
