Los árboles no saben contar chistes. Pero desde luego que saben contar historias. Rojo es un roble optimista y sirve de hogar para muchas criaturas salvajes que viven en armonía entre sus huecos.

Cada primero de mayo, los vecinos cuelgan de sus ramas sus deseos, con la esperanza de que se hagan realidad. Este año, un deseo especial proviene de Samar, una niña musulmana cuya familia es víctima de actos de odio y discriminación. Samar desea un amigo, y Rojo hará todo lo posible para cumplir con ese pedido.

El árbol de los deseos es "una historia bellamente escrita y moralmente vigorizante que dejará su impronta en un lector de cualquier edad". -The New York Times Review
