The Sapling

Full Episode description

What’s it like to be a little sapling on a chilly winter morning, bending and swaying in the wind? In this gentle tale, the little sapling strikes up a conversation with the tall oak tree about being little, being big, and … being trees! It sure is special to be a sapling!

This story features acoustic guitar and some squirrelly shakers. 

We’re thrilled to be back for Season Two of Big Giant Book! This story picks up where we left off in The Acorn. What a difference a year makes!

After the story, we share a special update about a big giant change for the new season: we’re launching a Big Giant Book CLUB! 

Big Giant Book Club will focus on the previous week’s story and include interactive activities, character interviews, playful songs, and more. It will take the place of our after show, with lots of bonus features and fun! All centered around the previous week’s episode. We hope you love it!

Here’s what the new schedule looks like for this month:

• January 8:   New story (The Sapling)
• January 15: Big Giant Book Club
• January 22: New Story
• January 29: Big Giant Book Club

Have you checked out Big Giant Book’s bonus videos? We recently added a few new video versions of our stories. They’re available on our YouTube channel (linked below). We’re excited to continue adding bonus videos on this channel regularly.
