Written and Illustrated by Matt Tavares
An enchanting Christmas story that begins by introducing two cardinals named Red and Lulu. They love their evergreen tree, especially around Christmas time, when individuals sing around the tree. One morning when Red hunts for breakfast, their tree is cut down and Lulu is trapped inside. Red searches high and low for Lulu and when all seems lost Red hears a special song about a Christmas tree. Readers young and old will find delight in this heart-touching tale and will learn some history about the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree.
