The Great Spruce is a story about a tree that means a lot to a young boy named Alec. When men from the Big City discover it, they ask if they can cut it down to display in the city square for the holidays.
Alec’s parents are honored, but Alec does not want to lose his favorite tree. He offers a compromise and everyone wins, in this joyful, informative tale.
Alec is the boy in The Great Spruce who saves his favorite tree from the axe.
This blog follows the adventures of Alec and Rosa, curious kids who love nature and planting trees.
