Way up high in the treetops, sleeps a happy little acorn. Until one day, he falls to the forest floor with a THUMP!

Can Little Acorn's new friends help him find the courage to step out of his comfort zone and enjoy living in the moment? And will he ever make it back to the top of the tree?
A wonderfully funny and reassuring story about friendship – perfect for children facing new experiences.
