Description

A bright‑eyed seven‑year‑old named Tattree spends her days trying to master everything the world offers, from sketching in an apple tree to untangling the little knots life throws her way. Her mother’s gentle guidance has always smoothed out the bumps, but a sudden, unsettling discovery shows her that some things lie beyond even a mother’s reach.

When her lively puppy, Doctor, dashes off with a rabbit clutched in his jaws, Tattree’s artistic reverie is shattered by a scream and a rush of protectiveness. The incident forces her to confront the messy realities of kindness, responsibility, and the limits of forgiveness, setting the stage for a gentle yet probing journey through childhood’s first real moral puzzles.
