Summary: A Treasure
Comment: I bought this book as a gift for my 3-year-old cousin. She enjoys it when I read it to her, but it is even better to watch her 7-year-old brother read it to her. This book tells a tale of three trees that dream of what they want to become when they grow up. All three are cut down and used in purposes far from what they had envisioned of themselves. However, by the end of the story, it is clear that the way they were used is not only exactly what they dreamed of, but they were used in the way that God wanted them to be.
This book serves well when speaking to your child about what he or she wants to be when all grown up. It will serve as a reminder to them that whatever they do, God will be with them and guiding them. God will use them in the way that he (or she) sees fit.
This leather-bound edition is beautiful. The front cover is heavily padded and is embossed with gold lettering. The price may be a little stiff for a children's book, but it will be with you and your child forever.
My first reading of this book was to a group of 6 and 7 year olds at bedtime at a Christian summer camp. I had never read the book before (not something I normally do) and I was so moved by the story and beautiful illustrations that I began reading every night to every group of kids that I had.
Why 5 stars?: This book, though somewhat pricey, teaches an enduring lesson through its words and wonderful pictures. This edition is very nice with its padded cover and gold lettering. It is on a level that second-graders can read. Perfect for them to read by themselves or possibly to a younger sibling. I would recommend this story to anyone who has ever had trouble seeing God in his or her life. His work is not always evident to us, but it is always there.

Summary: great gift!
Comment: I received this book as a gift form my 'Secret Sister' at my church. I had heard the story before and wanted to have a copy of the book, and now I do. It is a wonderful story about three trees that have wonderful dreams for themselves. The book /story also has beautiful illustrations. My husband read the story to me and our new baby the other day and it caused me to become emotional and cry.
The srory is about the tree that was made into the manger that Jesus rested in, another that was made into a boat that He sailed on and the third that was made into the cross that He died for our sins on.
It is a verry personal story to me.
I reccomend this book . . . add it to your child's library.

Summary: A Must for Every Library
Comment: I heard this story spoken one year during a summer camp evening program. When you hear this story it hits straight into your heart and stays there.
A few years ago, I had the opportunity to buy this book for all the families I work with. Now whenever "Auntie" is around the children request "The Tree Story". This book is always in the car to be read to any child.
I read the other recommendations, and yes, it does bring a lump to your throat. No matter how many times I read it, this book never fails to bring tears to my eyes.
This book belongs in every library and is a great influencer in the lives of young and old. The campfire I where I first heard this story took place years ago - yet I remembered the story long before I purchased the book.
A story for the ages......
