Keeper of the Clearing

A Woodland Adventure of Friendship, Courage and Discovery

by Jan Wood

In a once-harmonious woodland now overrun by conflict and confusion, three unlikely travelers are chosen to seek a forgotten way forward. Owl is wise but hesitant. Tiger is bold and full of fire. Turtle moves slowly and carries a quiet strength. Together, they journey beyond the bramble in search of what was lost-unraveling the mystery of the Keeper and the path once marked through stories and signs.

As the trio faces trials of fear, pride, silence, and doubt, they discover that the answers they seek may not lie ahead, but within. Each step forward becomes a lesson in how to see clearly, speak truthfully, act kindly, and live with care. Along the way, they encounter curious creatures, subtle teachers, and unexpected truths that challenge everything they thought they knew.

Keeper of the Clearing is a gentle, imaginative fable for readers ages 10 and up-a story that weaves adventure with quiet wisdom. Inspired by the teachings of the Eightfold Path and the Four Noble Truths, the book reimagines timeless principles through the lens of a woodland tale that is rich in metaphor, emotion, and hope.

With lyrical prose and black-and-white folk-art-inspired illustrations, author Jan Wood invites readers on a journey that is both outward and inward. This is a story about friendship, forgiveness, and remembering who we really are.

Perfect for thoughtful young readers, classrooms, and families looking to spark meaningful conversations, Keeper of the Clearing is a heartfelt reminder that every path worth walking begins right where you are.
