What if humans could see auras the way the plants and animals at Little Meadow can? And what if some of the new children entering the earth could communicate through touch? The creatures of Little Meadow have not seen humans for years, but every now and then the plants and animals still find some traces of humans like old bottles and bits of plastic. All human things are placed in the cave. That is until Libby Duck finds the Book. Full of beautiful pictures, some animals want to keep it, some want to separate the pages. Old Oak is consulted but the animals still argue over what should be done. Their paws throb and their tummies ache as the argument heats up. Finally, Old Oak's wisdom settles the argument and the Book is placed in the Cave, but the animals are still thinking about humans and their things when a moving trail of dust appears on the road in the distance. \tHumans have returned to the old campsite. The critters immediately notice a change in the auras; especially those of the children. Bonds of friendship are quickly formed. Not only are these visitors more enlightened, they also bring with them a new story and a new way of relating with the earth.
