04/27/22 • 20 min

This week's Free story comes from The Willowbee Tree collection.
It's called "Big Plans and Real Weather."
 
The Willowbees are deeply disappointed when they learn the Spring Festival has been postponed due to heavy rain. How frustrating it is when the weather doesn't cooperate! Their spirits are lifted a bit when the willow tree offers to take them to a new land. They go to the northern plains of the United States, where they learn from several bison and prairie dogs how to accept and honor the weather — whether you like it or not.
