The Willowbee Tree

Pushing the Sun

Little Ty has been feeling particularly small lately. If he could have one wish, it would be to be taller. But then the willow tree takes him to the Nile River of Ancient Egypt — where the smallest creature of all pushes the powerful sun across the sky with its tiny legs and tiny steps. He and his brother and sister return home with a new appreciation for the powers of being small.
