This is the third book in the Harmony Tree Series. It is a story of how a boy, Sage, who is different than all the other boys, finds his place in society because he is accepted for his particular giftings instead of complying to popular expectations. In most tribal societies differently gifted individuals were not looked down upon but considered sacred. The author has close relatives who are neurodivergent, but the story will be an encouragement for any child who is different; to the parents of such children, and to teach other children cultural and inter-relational sensitivity. In this third book, as in the prior two, parents will be able to pick out the ecological theme. The Harmony Tree Prequal: Different is Good encourages animal species preservation.
