The pay-it-forward message is so heartwarming! My little rock heart softened.

A sweet story about strangers helping people they can see have a need. I love learning about how Christmas traditions are started, particularly ones that are about the true meaning of Christmas - service and love for our fellow men. I didn't know that the wood from the giant Christmas tree in Rockefeller Center is donated to Habitat for Humanity! Very cool :)

I had to read this to third graders today, and it is an absolute treasure. I know that if I have kids, this book will be read to them.
Not only is it about Christmas, but it's about the human spirit and giving to others in need. You will see that the story comes around full circle. It's adorable, and I loved it.

Sweet story of how the Rockefeller Center trees are found and later used to help others have a home.

It is easy to go through a pile of holiday books and not be that impressed. However, I really enjoyed this one. Beautiful illustrations and a story of compassion, and giving that rings true even 80 years later.
