This gorgeously illustrated board book is perfect for little ones to enjoy! Julia Donaldson's perfect rhyme is a joy to read aloud. This is a classic to treasure for generations Victoria Sand?y's exquisite, atmospheric illustrations are full of gorgeous details to point out and share A paragraph on the back of the book explains the true story behind the tree The Christmas Pine is based on a true story. It celebrates a special tradition that stretches back over seventy years. Every year, the Mayor of Oslo in Norway presents the British people with a spectacular Christmas tree. The tree is a symbol of peace and friendship, and a thank you for the UK's support during World War II. Each year, the UK Poetry Society asks a poet to write a poem to welcome the tree. Julia Donaldson originally wrote The Christmas Pine to celebrate the 2020 Christmas tree. The poem was performed by London schoolchildren, and displayed in Trafalgar Square.
