Tuesday, Osage Orange Tree

The Osage Orange Tree is a story about finding people among a crowd. It is about making a connection with someone that is special, despite what the outside world is saying. It is also a story about beauty and loss. I hope you enjoy it! The story and questions are located in the assignments section. If you want to pursue an extension, please locate a visual representation of a scene from the story. It can be made by hand, in any medium.
