A playful, lively story about one acorn's difficult path to becoming a tree.

This is the house where Jill plays.

This is the oak that holds the house where Jill plays.

This is the nut that fell from the oak that holds the house where Jill plays ...

In the style of The House That Jack Built, here's a cumulative, rhyming tale that follows an acorn on an arduous journey, as one animal after another steals it, drops it or tosses it, sending the acorn inside an old shoe, high above the trees and down to the bottom of a stream. But in the end, the rat, goose, bear and more turn out to simply be the conduits that help the acorn eventually land on a hillside, where the warm sun helps it grow into another grand oak tree, which now holds the house where Jack (Jill's grandson) plays.
