The Tale of Three Trees
Retold by - Angela Elwell Hunt

Many
of us are familiar with this folktale about the three trees who each knew
what they wanted to be when they were grown up and how when it looked like
their dreams were dashed - God really gave them the desires of their hearts!
Favorite
Features
-
beautiful, deep colors in the illustrations
-
folktale with an important message
that will really touch hearts
I highly recommend this book for classrooms
and home. If you have some creative people in your church you could
ask them to develop a Christmas or Easter children's play based on this
story! Well done Angela, Tim and Lion!
