É a história de um menino que está crescendo e, como qualquer ser humano, procura seu lugar no mundo. Mas crescer, em qualquer época e sob qualquer circunstância, dói. Para Pequena Árvore, um menino cherokee – tribo índia dos Estados Unidos – de oito anos, essa tarefa não será nada fácil. Sua vida numa árida cidade mineradora, durante a Depressão americana – na década de 30 -, oferece-lhe poucos prazeres. Depois de perder os pais, ele vai morar com seus avós paternos numa floresta do Tennessee. Num ambiente mais carinhoso, ele reconhece, pela primeira vez, a beleza da natureza e a sabedoria da vida cherokee. A educação de Pequena Árvore está prestes a começar já que o futuro será recheado de descobertas e sofrimento.
