Chestnut Dreams

By Halina Below and Helena Below

Book Overview

A little girl and her grandmother discover a horse chestnut tree while on a walk in the park. The little girl yearns to have some chestnuts to play with as toys but her grandmother explains that she must be patient.

Halina Below's beautiful illustrations show the changing of the seasons as the young narrator and her "Baba" watch the chestnuts, the young girl decides there is a better use for them than as her toys.
