A gentle story about grief, memory, and the love that remains
When a terrible storm strikes the homestead, Duke and Toby wake to find that the great oak they loved most has fallen.
It was not just any tree. It was Toshi’s Tree — the place where they rested, remembered, and felt close to the family cat they had lost.
As the days move forward and life on the homestead continues, Toby struggles to understand how the world can keep going after something so important is gone. But with Duke’s steady love, and with Alan and Andrea’s quiet care, Toby begins to learn that love does not disappear when something changes.
Tender, thoughtful, and filled with heart, Duke and Toby and the Tree on the Hill is a story about grief, healing, memory, and the small ways love stays with us.
Perfect for readers who cherish gentle animal stories, meaningful family moments, and books that help children talk about loss with warmth and hope.
