Wishtree Av Katherine Applegate

<p><b>Trees can''t tell jokes, but they can certainly tell stories... </b><br><br>Red is an oak tree who is many rings old. Red is the neighbourhood wishtree – people write their wishes on pieces of cloth and tie them to Red''s branches. Along with a crow named Bongo and other animals who seek refuge in Red''s hollows, this wishtree watches over the neighbourhood.<br><br>You might say Red has seen it all.<br><br>Until a new family moves in. Not everyone is welcoming, and Red''s experience as a wishtree is more important than ever.<br><br>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.</p>
