Customer Reviews

I finally found it!!!

We loved this book so much when we checked it out from the library. I forgot to jot down the title and I couldn't remember the exact title. Here it is late March and I finally found it:)

Magical

We picked this book up at the library and read it last night. First off the illustrations are just beautiful! The writing is done very well. The story is so heartwarming and shows the true meaning of giving and selflessness. Just beautiful. My son actually had tears in his eyes at the end of the story. A keeper for sure!

Family Favorite

The Horn Book review states this is no match for contemporary Christmas stories, but our family would very much disagree. This story transports one into a magical, old fashioned world that circumscribes todays commercialism. The verse is beautiful and leaves one with an emotional glow. We love The Polar Express, but The Good Little Christmas Tree is our family favorite!
