What is The Lumberjack's Beard about?
Jim Hickory is a hardworking lumberjack who loves chopping down trees. But each fallen tree leaves a woodland animal without a home. Feeling sorry for the creatures, Jim invites them to live in his enormous beard. Soon his beard is stuffed with birds, beavers and other forest friends, and Jim can barely move. When the hairy solution becomes too much, he must find a better way to protect the animals—and the forest they call home. A funny tale about responsibility, kindness and conservation.
