圖書介紹
Family, friendship, and the spirit of giving are at the heart of this inspiring picture book about the origins of the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree. Opening in Depression-era New York, The Carpenter's Gift tells the story of Henry, who wishes as a boy for a nice, warm house to replace his family's drafty, one-room shack. Through the kindness of new friends and old neighbors, Henry's wish is granted, and he plants a pinecone to commemorate the event. As an old man, Henry repays the gift by donating to Rockefeller Center the enormous tree that has grown from that pinecone. After bringing joy to thousands as a beautiful Christmas tree, its wood will be used to build a home for a family in need. Created by celebrated children's history author David Rubel, in collaboration with Habitat for Humanity, The Carpenter's Gift features charming, full-color illustrations by Jim LaMarche.
