Jaime Y Las Bellotas (spanish Edition)

In this celebration of nature and determination, children witness how a boy named Jaime plants an acorn, only to have a squirrel dig it up and eat it. He continues to plant, albeit unsuccessfully a good portion of the time, and grows into an old man, but never gives up hope. Nature eventually triumphs in this colorfully illustrated story that will help readers understand how long it takes a tree to grow.
