A Review of The Tale of Three Trees

If you’re late to the game on this classic, that’s okay. Just buy this outstanding folktale retold by Angela Elwell Hunt and illustrated by Tim Jonke. Here’s why:

It is told by three trees. Each has dreams of becoming great. Each is deeply disappointed when they are chopped down and made into . . . . I can’t tell you or I’ll spoil this profound tale of wondering and fulfillment. Each tree later experiences amazing fame, but not in a way they or we would expect. It is God’s mysterious grace that intervenes using the humblest of designs for his grand story of redemption through Jesus Christ.
