A thousand years ago, a tiny acorn fell to the ground, and began growing into an enormous oak tree. As the centuries sweep by, children play games around the tree. Families dance about it. The tree gives food and shelter to a host of animals, from squirrels and badgers to birds and beetles. After a thousand years, the ancient tree finally falls in a storm - but a new acorn sprouts, and the cycle of life begins all over again.
