The Story of Rockford T. Honeypot
When Rockford was shunned from his family and left to find his own way in the big forest his mother gave him a special message. She told him to “reach for the uncracked diamonds”. She was referring to the stars in they sky.
During his time in the forest he meets several different groups of furry friends along the way. Very similar to how we live our lives. We have school friends, neighborhood friends, church friends, athletic team friends, etc. Some of those friends we keep for our lifetime, and some we only remain friends with during the time we share similar interests with.
Along his journey in the forest, Rockford learns some important lessons about life. He finds out a lot about himself, and uses the lessons from previous encounters towards new adventures he comes across.
I don’t want to spoil the ending of the book for you. So check it out for yourself!
