"A sprightly, unashamedly Christmassy picture book" Observer
“If you’re going to pick a Christmas themed book this season, you’ll struggle to find one more festively atmospheric ... this is a comforting book” The Herald
Pick a pine tree from the lot – slim and tall, or short and squat! Long straight limbs or branches bent... Mmm! Just smell that piney scent!
From the dazzling duo who made Together With You comes a beautiful, irresistible Christmas gift book that all begins with … picking a pine tree! Brimming over with the excitement of being with family at the festive season, a gorgeously rhythmical, read-aloud narrative accompanied by warm, joyful art celebrates all the familiar rituals of decorating the tree – from digging out jam-packed boxes of trimmings, stringing tinsel, to, at last, turning on those twinkly fairy lights.
“A rhyming picture book with glowing illustrations that celebrates the Christmas ritual of selecting and decorating the perfect tree.” The Irish Independent
"Jarvis’ illustration is absolutely remarkable, and its soft retro-styled beauty makes this book really stand out." BookTrust
“The rhyming text is brimming with energy” Daily Mail
"Full of cosy Christmas cheer ... this is a lovely story for all the family to share at Christmas." The Scotsman
