Can anyone remember a book about life as seen through what happened beneath an old tree? An oak, I think. Was a British book I am sure, probably from the earlier part of the 20th century, I think.

The whole book was a series of chapters about events that happened in/around the tree.

Can’t remember the name of the book or the author!

Vague, I know, but there you go…!

There’s a new Harry Potter book out flashy. I thought you’d be busy reading that tbh. 🙂

the magic faraway tree by enid blyton

I’ve read some of them to my kids – rubbish

Thanks, Tim, but definitely not a Blyton book! Otherwise, am struggling to remember!

The Giving Tree is about a boy and a trees journey through life. Very sad as well!

I think I know the one you mean, and the author was “BB”. Can’t remember the title though – something like Lord of the Forest?

I came across this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denys_Watkins-Pitchford he wrote under the name of BB

Stealthcat has it! Thanks!
