The greatest story ever told, through the eyes of the smallest tree is a story of GIVING. As everyone in the forest gathers their finest gifts for the new born King, the littlest fir tree feels he has nothing to offer. But God sees his heart. The kind & thankful little fir tree ends up giving the BEST GIFT of all.

Use this book as an extra resource to help children ages 3 -10 think more about GIVING than GETTING this Christmas. Share with Sunday School classes, after-school care groups, or Family gatherings.
