The Forgiving Dove
A long time ago on the small island of Wanahkie there was a beautiful forest that grew in the
centre of this deserted island. In the middle of this forest stood a tree which was superior to all
the other trees, it was the oldest, and biggest tree in the forest and legend has it that the tree

crow to stay yet he refused to listen and flew away.
Morning drew closer and the suns rays began to shine on Wanahkie. The storm had finally
