It seems hard to believe that an entire year has passed since the four best friend's last great adventure in The Treasure Tree. Now it is time to enjoy another birthday. This year Owl's present will take the friends on two different trails where they will learn that love, courage, prayer, and caring acts can build a bridge across their differences and help them love each other like best friends, as God's friends should.
