This richly illustrated book helps children ages three and up appreciate this wonderful symbol and understand its deep roots in Christian tradition. For example, its evergreen needles are a reminder of eternal life, the lights remind us that Jesus is the Light of the World, and a star on top points to the star of Bethlehem shining over the Savior's birthplace. It tells the story of a humble and thankful young fir tree which found its way to the manager to worship the baby Jesus.
