Imagine being small and stuck on the ground out of sight. That’s the life of a Shroomie. What would the world be like if you were a mushroom, flower, toad, or magical forest creature?
A bobcat might eat a rabbit. A fox could snatch a mouse or two. Even a wild pixie might fall prey to a hungry hawk or owl. Forest critters treat each other respectfully.
In fact, Grandfather Stump, the oldest tree in the woods, shares an incredible story.
A simple mushroom once saved the life of a great bear. It shot a cloud of dust spores into the eyes of a hungry pack of wolves chasing him.
The wolves cleared their eyes. By that time, the bear had hightailed it back to the safety of his den.
Grandfather Stump reminds the forest children that no matter how small you may be. When they all work together, they are much greater. Together, they surpass the largest of the beasts.
