Great book

Review by jonathanlaw

This book is really heartwarming and makes you think a lot about nature and animals and how you are impacting them with your actions and how you could use your actions to support them.

Wishtree

Review by Mimsi

It was very nice. It was about a tree and its friends - a girl, a boy, and some animals. The best part is that the tree talked.

Wishtree

Review by ejbern

I really loved this book because it is told from the point of view of a tree named Red! Red is a wishtree. Every year, on May 1st, people in her neighborhood hang wishes on Red’s branches. This book is perfect for readers who love comedy or fantasy.
