When Firry, a proud Douglas fir, is damaged and discarded on his way to the Christmas tree lot, he is rescued by Burton the Scarecrow and a host of his little woodland friends. Repaired but forever changed, Firry fears that he's lost his special purpose until his history of bragging gives way to humility and he learns a valuable life lesson. Discovering the importance of service to others, Firry finally understands what it truly means to be first rate. WHAT MAKES BURTON AND THE CHRISTMAS TREE A HOLIDAY FAVORITE? Building on the legacy of Burton the Kind Scarecrow, V.A. Boeholt's fourth picture book teaches a universal lesson of friendship that embodies the holiday season by reinforcing important character-building principles like self-acceptance, being a role model, and overcoming obstacles. Coupled with Nathaniel P. Jensen's vibrant illustrations, Boeholt's rich narrative brings Burton, Firry, and their friends to life, celebrating diversity, compassion, and the joy of giving. The story's heartfelt message is reinforced by an innovative Resource Guide and Glossary, outlining story concepts, suggesting reader/listener connecting points, and recommending supplementary activities.
