This is a warm story with lovely and moralistic conversations between a girl and her father.

Being child, Ellie was worried that her birthday passed but her height didn't vary. She complained her father about it. Here comes the parenting. Her Father took a realistic approach to let her understand the fact for how things work in real life. There is a miracle in life in everything but can't be seen through naked eyes. He had shown her the way an avocado seed nourishes under sunlight, dipped in water.

She thoughly understand the process and enjoy while it started sprouting. They have to move the plant from one to another place and then eventually transplant the tree to a bigger feild, with time. She became older but that fact remains and she passes on the knowledge and its pattern to grasp, to her children also.

This is an amazing work by Taltal Levi, and I wonder how exciting it would be to her, as the excerpt says, it was inspired from her own childhood.
