Description

AMERICAS NEWEST CHRISTMAS STORY: Talking Christmas tree tells of adventures in the house In new childrens Christmas book, A Trees Christmas In Americas newest childrens Christmas book, A Trees Christmas (www.atreeschristmas.com), by Southern journalist and author Andrew Bowen, the Christmas tree at the center of a familys sacred season tells heartwarming and exciting stories of its adventures in a familys house during Christmas along with color commentary from its sidekick, Lucky the Irish setter. Opening and closing with narration by a 13-year-old girl who thinks she dreamed the story (but lets the reader decide if thats true), the book examines themes of the cycle of life, family ties, birth, death, hardships and triumphs so appropriate for current times. The book even addresses current issues important for youth by showing how the little Christmas tree raises its self confidence and overcomes bullying by larger trees, which eventually come to respect and love the little Christmas tree. Lovingly taken out and laid down in the familys snow-covered garden after Christmas, to the amazement, surprise and delight of the trees around the garden, the Christmas tree spends the night telling the other trees what it was like to be a part of the familys Christmas celebration, to be the center of attention during the special season, and how it helped make their Christmas even better.In one of the chapters that is already the favorite of little boys, the Christmas tree and Lucky the Irish setter tell how they managed to chase off a burglar trying to steal all of the presents under the tree. In another chapter, the tree and Lucky tell how they helped to get a fire going in the fireplace to help keep a mother and her newborn warm with a blizzard raging outside. The main characters oaks, pines, maples, dogwoods, willows, poplars and hickories all take on the personalities of their species (as observed by the authors 50 years in the rural South). The tree-characters interact with the little Christmas tree variously as friendly, critical, uncaring, aloof, arrogant, and finally, loving and caring. Its a sweet childrens Christmas story that Im sure young children will like, commented reviewer Dr. Judith Briles, author of more than 20 books and board member of the Colorado Independent Publishers Association. Adults will understand and love the circle of life theme. And, of course, the author reminds us theres a lot more to a tree than its branches and leaves! The surprise ending will touch everyones hearts.
