An Ancient Oak for Young Readers
This is the 300 year old oak that was felled by lightning and was resurrected as a children’s favourite. I’ve told the story of the oak-born, knock-kneed and sharp-clawed Gruffalo before, most recently yesterday. The Cosmic Photo Challenge: From an Unusual Perspective

The Fox, the Owl, the Snake, and the Mouse are inside the Gruffalo.
