A magical picture book for Christmas, written in perfect, heartfelt
rhyme by Julia Donaldson, bestselling creator of Zog and Superworm.
"Magical . . . as well as paying tribute to tradition, the gentle
rhythmic verse and stunning pictures illuminate the two other
things close to Julia's heart: the power of children and song" Good
Housekeeping Deep in a snowy wood stands a little pine tree with a

Christmas tree in Trafalgar Square! This is the perfect picture
book to snuggle up with and share at Christmas. Gorgeous,
atmospheric illustrations whisk you from frozen forests to the
sparkling city square in a beautiful, moving story of festivity and
hope. Julia Donaldson's perfect rhyme is a joy to read aloud. This
is a classic to treasure for generations Victoria Sandoy's
exquisite, atmospheric illustrations are full of gorgeous details
to point out and share A paragraph on the final page 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. Julia Donaldson is the author of
many of the best-loved children's books ever written. She has been
awarded a CBE for services to literature, and is the most
celebrated children's writer in Britain today. Many of Julia
Donaldson's beloved picture books have been made into award-winning
animated films which are regularly shown on the BBC at Christmas.
