The nightingale has returned from distant Africa and is looking for a spot to build its nest. And there are so many trees and bushes in the garden to chose from! Which of them would make a good home for a bird? Maybe a sour cherry tree, or a sweet cherry tree... or perhaps even a cherry plum tree? And what about a plum, or a pear tree? Each tree tells its story to the nightingale, describing its own special traits. What emerges from the stories of the trees is the image of the old gardener, clever and kind, who treats the trees as living creatures, talks to them and cherishes them greatly, along with his family, still living in the nearby house, honoring the trees and collecting their fruit.

This is a little story about big things like growing up in a community, appreciating similarities and differences in people around us, and discovering one's own identity in order to be happy. But it is also about learning how to recognize trees in a park and know them by their leaves, fruits and flowers — a little bit of eco-education conveyed in a very playful, fairy-tale manner. A sprout grows in a park and looks attentively at the trees around it — the birch, oak, maple, sycamore, chesnut, poplar tree, willow, and ginkgo — trying to discern its own identity by comparing itself to them, getting to know who is who, and figuring out whom it resembles. Because “happiness is having someone like you as a friend”.

The universe is always on the move: Nothing in it remains completely at rest. Movement is natural: The Earth, the water on it, the atmosphere, the continents, and all living organisms exist in a state of constant motion. We walk, run, jump, crawl, swim, and fly. We travel. This book is about movement and travel—not only by people, but also that of animals, plants, the wind, water, and our planet. It describes journeys for the purpose of trade and commerce, journeys for the purpose of pleasure and repose or for survival, as well as scientific expeditions and pilgrimages. It’s about migrations, maps, navigation, and, finally, about finding your own path.
