When the poor little wayward fir tree is taken to the Christmas tree lot in the big city, no one wants to buy it; they prefer the big, tall, fluffy trees. But a homeless boy asks the shopkeeper if he can take the little tree, and down by the river in a cardboard box, decorated with a few candles, the tree finds itself at the centre of a magical Christmas Eve it will never forget. A Christmas tale where no tree is left behind and a new chance at life is given to a tree in need. This thoughtful story is full of some powerful messages and is beautifully illustrated by Emily Sutton to capture the feeling of Christmas in the city.
