The Promise

by Nicola Davies

On a mean street in a mean city, a young thief tries to steal an old woman’s bag. But the woman makes her promise something in return — to “plant them all.” The bag is full of acorns, and as the thief begins to plant them, her small act of kindness grows into something far greater, changing not just her life, but the lives of countless others for generations to come.
