A review by pianosharon
The Little Fir Tree by Jim LaMarche, Margaret Wise Brown

3.0

A sweet little story (or is it more of a fairy tale?) about a little tree that is used to cheer an invalid boy. It starts as a nature story about how this little tree grows. You expect it to be cut down as a Christmas tree but it’s dug up and then spends its winter inside with a little invalid boy. One day after several years of being transplanted and replanted, the boy somehow walks to the tree. It doesn’t make a lot of sense but it has a happy ending and I loved the illustrations by Barbara Cooney.
