The Christmas Tree

Rating:
Summary: It touches like nothing else could!
Review: It is hard to believe that such a short novel can pack in so much emotions. As I followed the narrator into the life of little Anna and Sister Anthony, I was overwelmed by the simplicity and pureness of the love she possesses. In a society like ours, we tend to forget the most basic of humanity--love. By reading this book, you unlock in your heart the door that allows you to see the many touching things in life that we fail to appreciate. Read this book on Christmas eve and you will never look at a Christmas tree the same way as you did again.

Summary: A Burst of Emotion on Paper!
Review: Simple and elegant, sentimental and spiritual, this book will touch your soul without preaching. An easy read (I devoured it in less than an hour), it took me another hour to recover. Ms. Salamon's convincing prose and Ms. Weber's whimsical artwork have collaborated on one destined to become a classic. If you like to give books as gifts, this one will satisfy young or old, rich or poor, well-read or slow-read, male or female. It's hard to believe this small of a package could deliver such a miracle. There is no excuse for not reading this one!

It's a really short book and I read it in one evening. Don't pass this one up... it'll get you in the spirit of finding your christmas tree.

Summary: A true "Feel Good" Story
Review: This is a book that young and old alike can really get into. It's very easy to read. It's the type of book you can sit down with in a big comfy chair, grab a cup of hot chocolate and escape all of the commercialism of the holidays and just feel warm and wonderful inside. Even those that don't read often due to lack of time...you can get through this one in about an hour or so. DO take the time to read this one. You'll be glad you did!

Summary: Just the Thing
Review: This is one of my favorite books. This and the Christmas Box. I have read both and I have the video of The Christmas Box. I also saw a movie on TV that was The Christmas Tree which is based on the book. However, I cannot find the video in the any of the department stores or video stores. I know I saw it and would love to add it to my collection. Please help me if you know where I can get it. Thanks, Frances M.

Summary: My favorite holiday book
Review: This is perhaps my favorite of all our holiday books, and we have many! I just stumbled across it again today while organizing our decorations, and even in the hot Georgia June weather I couldn't resist sitting down and reading the entire thing again. This is a beautiful story, and the ending is marvelous. Everyone should own a copy and read it over and over!
