It was hard for Little Acorn to believe he would ever be a big, strong oak tree.

Soon Little Acorn grew into Little Oak. But now what was he to do? He couldn't grow oranges like the orange tree or flowers like the rose bush. He just grew and grew until he became Big Oak, and his branches were big and strong-but still he didn't know what he was to do. Then one day Big Oak found that his strong branches were just right for a very special purpose. The Oak Inside the Acorn is the story of the miracle inside each of us.

For within every child is the special person God created, just waiting to grow.

    This is an excellent book showing how God uses small things to achieve great ones. Easy reading. Good illustrations. My only request would be that there would be a version involving a boy or perhaps a boy and a girl. Max Lucado's books for youngsters are quite Brilliant!

    As always this author writes an engaging story about an acorn to address a child's uncertainty and fears, in this case facing up to becoming more independent and with a separate identity and destiny from its mother. A tale to be revisited many times.

    A wonderful book for kids in transition from primary to secondary school or around that age. We also use it as a gift for our older post baptism children at the end of the MU 1-5 scheme. I live it!
