Rowan begins as a small seed beside a stone wall, safe and certain of where home is.
But when fierce winds and rising waters uproot Rowan again and again, everything familiar disappears.
Each new place feels frightening at first.
The ground is different. The sky is different. Even the birds sound strange.
But slowly, roots press down.
Bark grows thicker. Scars form and strength forms with them.
This powerful story is for children navigating change, foster care, adoption, or unexpected transitions.
And Still I Grow gently reminds readers that the storms were never their fault and that every move, every scar, and every season survived becomes part of their strength.
Caregiver notes are included to help guide meaningful conversations and support children as they
process big changes and feelings.
