Everybody’s Tree
by Barbara Joosse (Author) and Renée Graef (Illustrator)
Booktalk: Over the course of eighty years a spruce tree grows, along with the little boy who first selected it at a tree farm. As the tree grows from sapling to magnificent evergreen, the child matures as well, becoming a father and then grandfather. Now at the end of its life, the glorious tree is chosen to be the centerpiece of a city’s holiday celebration. The tree journeys from rural countryside to big city center, where everyone, young and old, comes together to celebrate a tree for all; everybody’s tree.
Snippet:
Now there are grandbabies
still so small,
playing beside you,
grand and tall.
