Description
A gorgeous gift book to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas – a perfect gift for any Christmas stocking.
A lonely tree stands on the cold, frosted hillside gazing at the other trees sparkling in the village below. How it longs to be with them! Then suddenly out reaches a warm friendly hand, and with a wobble and a shake, a very jolly fellow takes the tree on a journey to a new place … where the tree will feel that it belongs once more, surrounded by old friends and new.
A beautiful Christmas gift inspired by the Christmas poem 'Twas the Night Before Christmas. With an uplifting message about overcoming loneliness and celebrating being together.
