The Tree

by Sandy Barton, A.T. Baron (Illustrator)

In this full-color picture book, Rabbit, Mouse and Chickadee discover the magic that lies beneath a discarded Christmas tree. They wait and hope and dream of it happening all over again. A perfect read-to book for young children at holiday time or ANY time at all! It speaks to the value of patience, hope, and friends. In addition, The Tree is a lovely way to introduce the concepts of seasons, feelings, and simple pleasures. A.T. Baron has lovingly illustrated the pages with images that make the reader want to reach in and touch these sweet little friends. A perfect book for ages 3-7. * When doing a search for my talented illustrator, please use A.T. Baron instead of AT Baron. The field of Barons and Bartons is getting crowded!

Full Disclosure: The author hired me to illustrate this book.

Now that that is out of the way, I would not have accepted the work if the book wasn't absolutely worth it.

Sandy Barton developed a very charming story of Rabbit, Mouse, and Chickadee finding a discarded Christmas tree, and the joy beneath it. Their delightful time beneath the tree ends abruptly when a man hauls it off as refuse. Now they have to wait patiently through the changing seasons and hope for another chance to relive the magic.

This is a great story for children ages 3-7. I am proud to have worked with Sandy, to bring this story of hope and joy to all of you.
