An Interactive Storybook, for Children and Parents In The Bitterness Tree you will follow a story about a young boy (Tommy) and his younger sister (Sally), and what happens to their relationship as unforgiveness comes in. Unforgiveness is the seed of The Bitterness Tree which soon branches out into resentment, retaliation, anger, hatred, violence, and murder. The story takes a break at the end of each chapter, with a "Teaching" section for the parent to help the child learn the spiritual side of the story. Then there is a "Making it Right" section, with a Q&A to help the child recognize any of their own unforgiveness, and a prayer of forgiveness and release. Doesn't sound like your typical "children's book," I know.
