Dula, Fig, and the Wisdom of Old Sycamore is a beautifully illustrated and powerful story that gives kids an accessible framework to better understand their world - hard things are easier with kindness. Old Sycamore helps young Dula understand herself a little better through commentary on her mother's favorite story (for which Dula was named). He tends to Dula's frustration in a loving way and dismisses her back to her real life with gentleness. Kindness is a core-value of our household, and I loved sharing this story with my kids. I look forward to reading it many times over the next several years!
