After a year of learning how to nourish his body as suggested by his farmer, he grows to be one of the fullest, most beautiful trees in the farm that was finally chosen during the next Christmas season.The story of Branch teaches children about hard work, dedication, and motivation, and that anything is obtainable if they set their minds to it. Children will also enjoy reading a story that possibly shares one of their own family traditions during the holidays, choosing their favorite Christmas tree!
