In a peaceful forest filled with butterflies, singing birds, and sparkling morning dew lives Woody Nimkin—one of the gentlest little creatures you’ll ever meet. But Woody has a problem: he cannot speak until he completes his first good deed.
His journey takes him across the river into a troubled forest, where fussing and fighting have brought sadness to every creature. With bravery in his heart, Woody sets out to help two troublesome Grumpkins discover the power of kindness.
This beautifully written story reminds children that even the smallest act of goodness can change the world around them.
