Christmas is here and Mr. Willowby's tree has arrived! There's just one big problem . . . the tree is too tall to fit in his parlor. He cuts off the top so it will fit, but little does he know that the top of that tree will travel clear across the countryside, bringing holiday cheer to the homes of bears, rabbits, mice, and more! In the end, the one tall tree has provided smaller Christmas trees for seven homes, from Mr. Willowby's mansion to the cozy mouse hole behind Mr. Willowby's chair, where three little mice dance around their tiny tree. This heartwarming story is the perfect way to start your yuletide season.
