This absolutely beautiful book will really instil the true Christmas spirit in all who read it. Planted carelessly, the little fir tree has no chance to grow, so stays small and stunted. No wonder that it’s left in the shop after all the other trees are taken to decorate homes. But something special happens and the little tree is at the centre of a real Christmas celebration and, almost miraculously, is given a chance to grow again.
The story is one of hope and new beginnings, and Emily Sutton’s illustrations, full of details that children will love, have a wonderful almost folk art feel. Buy it and bring home the real magic of Christmas! ~ Andrea Reece
