Little Fir Tree

They put golden tinsel on his branches And golden bells And green icicles And silver stars And red and green and blue and purple chains of shining Christmas balls. All alone in an empty field grew a little fir tree. It dreamed of being part of a forestor part of anything at all. Then one winter day a man takes the little fir tree away and it finds itself at the center of a little boys very special celebration. This treasured story by the legendary Margaret Wise Brown has been newly illustrated by awardwinning artist Jim LaMarche. Warm glowing paintings complement the gentle text to capture the true heart of Christmas.
