Unabridged. No one had ever seen big Peter before, and no one ever saw him again, and no one ever saw him at all but small Peter who lived in dingy, squalid old Shantytown.\u00a0Yet it was big Peter\u2019s gift to small Peter \u2014 a shiny toy spade with a red handle, and a small green tree lighted with tiny candles \u2014 that caused Shantytown people to have hope again. And with new hope the grass grew, and there were gardens, and the junk heaps were cleaned up and the sagging doors were put back on their hinges.<\/p>\n

This is a modern Christmas miracle, through which sad and beaten houses became white and neat and shining, and desolate, hopeless people found that love and hope can still move mountains.\u00a0There are no saints and angels; just a tramp, an Irish cop, a small boy, and City Hall, but Shanytown becomes Peter\u2019s Landing and faith was reborn.<\/p>\n

\n

A small blond boy is seen clinging to a rusty iron fence against a rain-drenched backdrop of any \u2018shanty town\u2019 \u2014 and\u00a0A Tree for Peter<\/i>\u00a0happens. \u201cFrom such small sparks were all my books written. I never really know what the story is going to be; soon after I start writing, the very people I am writing about take over and tell me what they want to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2014Kate Seredy<\/p>\n

\u201cA Tree for Peter<\/i>\u00a0is an inspiring chapter book that once read will be long remembered. This is a treasure of a book with much chance for meaningful dialogue!\u201d<\/p>\n
