Tina Tannenbaum loves the forest, its animal inhabitants, and her friend Kasimir, the crooked fir tree. But when one day the lumberjacks arrive and take her mother and sister away for their new life as a Christmas tree, it completely throws her off balance. The next fierce storm knocks the lonely Tina over and severs her roots. Although the forester replants her, she wobbles from then on—so much that she can no longer adequately care for her little fir tree children. Fortunately, the forester has advice. This children's book addresses psychological stress and illness, as well as high parental expectations. It conveys the message that it is important to seek help in a crisis. Child and adolescent psychiatrist and psychotherapist Daniel Busch encourages those affected. Because for their children, parents must be firmly rooted in life. For children aged 4 and up.
