From his window high up in a tall city building, Max can look down and watch the busy street below, full of people bustling to and fro. Looking up, though, all he can see is a little slice of sky – and every day he gazes at it, wondering what might lie beyond the blue, among the clouds. Then one day a bird swoops down out of that little slice of sky and lands on his window ledge, searching for a friend. Not just any friend, either, but one very special friend to receive a tiny, amazing gift: a magical seedling. Max looks after the little plant with great care, and day by day it grows bigger and stronger, its glossy leaves reaching up toward the little slice of sky, until at last it becomes a mighty tree. And that’s when everything changes – not just for Max, but for everyone in the city.
