The Tree Climbing Country Girl
You are Never too Small to Dream Big or Achieve your Goals
by S.P-Weissman




When Shailey’s siblings and cousins leave her out of their games because she’s too little, she finds the biggest tree on the farm: a huge mango tree. Determined to prove them wrong, Shailey scales the trunk, swings from the branches, and perches amongst a rainbow cluster of mangoes. With self-confidence, strength, and courage, Shailey catches her family’s attention and teaches them a lesson in kindness.


To the little girl who was always told that she couldn't, but was brave enough to do it all.


S. P-Weissman grew up an adventurous young tree-climber in Guyana surrounded by her many siblings and cousins. She wrote The Tree-Climbing Country Girl to encourage and inspire young people to go after what they want, despite self-doubts and discouragement from others. The Tree-Climbing Country Girl is her first book. She lives in Toronto with her husband and young son.
