Little Seed is afraid to go out into the world. He doesn't have any hopes or dreams, while his sisters and brothers do. They feel confident that when the wind tugs, they will realize their dreams. As each of his sisters and brothers are whisked away to find their dreams, Little Seed worries. Where will he find his dream and where will the wind take him? He longs to go somewhere far away; but his dream of serving The King far away is shattered when the wind subsides and drops him straight down. Will he ever do anything mighty? He has been promised that he will, but gradually his dream fades. Not until he becomes Little Tree does he begin to hope again. Mary Elizabeth (Robbie) Edgren is a Grandmother with eleven grandchildren who has been writing children's stories for twenty years.

Little Tree's Mightiest Deed is her first picture book for younger readers. Robbie grew up on a small farm in Chatham, New Jersey, where she nurtured her love of animals and nature.
