Review

"Pick a pine tree" is the story of family traditions. Finding the perfect Christmas tree to celebrate the season. Bringing out all of the ornaments, including the toilet paper roll snowman that always gets tucked into the branches. Stringing the lights and garland. And of course the very special tree topper. The rhyming text make this the perfect read aloud, whether for shared story times or special lap time. The best part are the illustrations by Jarvis. I have to admit he is my new favorite. His illustrations are full of character and warmth. This is sure to become a family favorite.

Overall Book Score: excellent
