A Wish to be a Christmas Tree - Colleen Monroe
Pair and Share: We begin our discussion talking about trees and their importance in our lives.

Tell them how Christmas Trees came to be.
Then we read the story - The main character (tree) is sad because he's too big and too tall to be a Christmas tree anymore. He doesn't think he's valuable anymore. The birds and animals try to show him how important he is to them. In the long run, they decorate him as a Christmas Tree from year to year and he feels appreciated. We're all special!
