I was trying to figure out what caused wind. I noticed the leaves moving when the wind blew, and I knew that a fan (handheld) also moved wind. So it stood to reason that trees moved causing the leaves to move which caused the wind. And naturally it must be earthquakes that caused the tree to love. And then I thought, we’ll there must be a master tree that started the wind, and the most “logical” place for that tree would be the North Pole.

So, that there was a tree on the North Pole that caused all the wind.

Pretty sure that could be the basis for a series of children's novels that were eventually adapted into a trilogy (or more) of movies.

It's a trilogy of children's books, where the first two get a movie each and the last book is split into 2.

I like your thought process. You might be on to something...

Except for the North Pole, I had the exact same idea. I got to the idea of a single tree controlling things then got my hands on a Red Ryder Carbine-action 200-shot Range Model Air Rifle and forgot about trees.
