A Perfect Tree: A Story About Anger And A Child’s First Prayer

When DeeDee’s parents move into an oh-so-tiny dollhouse, DeeDee’s winter holiday becomes a spiral of losses. It isn’t that DeeDee isn’t fond of dollhouses, that’s okay, and DeeDee stays cheerful when she is taunted by a classmate. But, when the cunning classmate lies about the present with DeeDee’s name on it, she gets angry.

To top it off, dad explains that their new house is too small to set up a holiday tree. In DeeDee’s spiral of disappointments, all is not lost! Surprises are in store when accidents happen.
