Description
A tender Christmas story about loss, hope, and finding courage when the world changes in ways we don't understand. Liam, a young balsam fir, watches his family disappear from the forest one by one. He doesn't know where they've gone or why they're being taken, only that each year the woods grow quieter -- and he feels more alone. Frightened and longing for life to return to the way it was, Liam searches for answers in the winter sky.Through a gentle encounter and a story shared by a wise friend, Liam discovers that even in moments of deep uncertainty, love continues in ways he never imagined. What begins in fear becomes a journey toward understanding, purpose, and the promise of new beginnings.Beautifully illustrated and emotionally resonant, The Christmas Tree Wish offers families a comforting way to talk about change, loss, and resilience. Perfect for holiday read-alouds, classroom discussions, and creating meaningful Christmas traditions.Winner of the Gold Mom's Choice Award, Honoring Excellence, this heartfelt tale invites readers of all ages to slow down, connect, and find hope in the quiet magic of the season.--Daphne Thompson
