A broken chain, a piece of string, a bottle cap . . . To most people, these things are useless trash. But to a clever crow, they’re just what he needs to create a special surprise–a beautiful Christmas tree that everyone can treasure.
Told in jaunty rhyme by Kathi Appelt and lavishly illustrated by Jon Goodell, this heartwarming story of people brought together by a very unexpected artist has all the makings of a Christmas classic.
