My Review
EJ was very excited because his mom promised to take him to see the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center. On the way he crossed on a ferry and rode the subway. His mother explained that some people made a wish on the tree because it was the most magical tree in the world. EJ met a classmate from school who told him that Christmas was all about getting presents. EJ didn’t know what to think. Before they arrived at the tree, EJ and his mother passed a homeless man who was very cold. Although his mother gave the man a little money, EJ decided that his Christmas wish was to give the old man a blanket. When they gave the man the blanket, he told EJ that without selfless giving there wouldn’t be a Christmas. EJ learned a wonderful lesson about caring and giving and this book will teach your child about giving, too.
