Trees can't tell jokes, but they can certainly tell stories.
. . .
Red is an oak tree who is many rings old. Red is the
neighborhood "wishtree"—people write their wishes on pieces of cloth
and tie them to Red's branches. Along with her crow friend Bongo and other
animals who seek refuge in Red's hollows, this "wishtree" watches
over the neighborhood.
You might say Red has seen it all. Until a new family moves
in. Not everyone is welcoming, and Red's experiences as a wishtree are more
important than ever.
Funny, deep, warm, and nuanced, this is Katherine Applegate
at her very best—writing from the heart, and from a completely unexpected point
of view.
