Advent Reads Day 12: Evergreen A Christmas Tale by Richard Taylor

 
Synopsis: "A dying grandfather tells the story of the first Christmas tree to a family wrenched by strife."

My Review: This is an interesting take on the Christmas tree and its origins. I found the story a little odd in its presentation and audience in the story, but it is still a heart warming tale. I did like how the narrator was thinking back on this story in his own aging years and remembered how the names held significance.
 
My Rating: For some reason this one just didn't strike a chord with me, maybe it would with someone else, but I think maybe the story as a whole needs a little more development. I give it a rating of One Paw and a Stump Wag.
