Rockythe rockefeller Christian tree is such an interesting book and it can encourage young children to middle age children as it relay a message of self confidence despite how scornful your neighbours maybe just like spruce and AJ were to Rocky. Rocky is able to win the contest just because of self confidence and hard working. It as well teach young children to stop being a bully because it doesn't help anything. People will start talking of magic as you move deep into your success but who cares. This book is so much interesting and despite the fact that am not a child I was able to enjoy it. Congratulations to the #BOTD

Awesome! Just yesterday I was thinking about children's tales, mentally making a list what to read from. This is an excellent and cute story with important messages. Thanks for the great review!

The book with a tree as a main character for children is really amazing. It glues children on their seats. :techie-

The Rockefeller Christmas Tree is a book that I will surely recommend to other mothers to buy for their kids. The values that this book conveys about believing in one's self especially when no one believes in you is an essential trait for a kid to have. At this time and age when bullying is a reality, it is important for a kid to see his worth as a person and feel good about himself. Having books like this that will help our kids get to know and learn the core values they need to grow up as responsible and ethical individuals, is very helpful to parents. Thank you, Jennie Nicassio for the concept and Dina Colangelo for the illustrations which I'm sure will fully enthral other kids as they did my own kid.

I love how you described this story as giving life to Charlie Brown's Christmas tree! This sounds like an original children's story, and I can't wait to read it.

This is an interesting review. I showed the book to my niece and she was full of questions which is a healthy exercise.

Not keeping in mind the above facts, the book definitely is worthy of being referred to kids for a read.
