This book would be used for Christmas time or any time a teacher is discussing holidays, etc. However, I did not like that the words on the pages did not start with capital letters and there were odd spaces in between the words.

Lyric Poem: This poem tells the story of the littlest Christmas tree in the forest. One day a little girl comforts the tree and takes it inside her house so she and her brother can decorate it with Christmas decorations. In the end everyone in town sees the pretty decorated tree in the window of the house of the little girl and boy and they all decide to dance and sing "Noel Noel."

I thought this book was pleasant and flowing. The pictures made more since to me than the poem. If the book did not have pictures you might be confused with the story the poem is trying to tell.

This book teaches children to love people and things no matter what the circumstance. That is, this book teaches children to love someone or something who is shorter, taller, depressed, or even just diffent in any way shape or form. This book also teaches children to be comforting to someone who is going through something. Lastly I think this book teaches children to be kind to nature, animals, and other people as well as to be a blessing by doing something nice for someone or something. ( )
