"What a Tree It Will Be! - Story about Cooperation during the Holidays

by L.S.V. Baker “I hear lots of good thoughts, but think a bit longer.         If you work together, can you make the tree stronger?” What A Tree It Will Be! is a playful, rhyming story about cooperation which focuses on working as a team. Baxter’s Corner character Mr. McBoom the teacher brings a Christmas tree to class for the kids to decorate. The thin bundle of branches isn’t exactly what the kids had in mind. Mr. McBoom encourages each student to add his or her own special touch. Together they created the perfect tree. At the end of the story, we give you the opportunity to speak to your value of cooperation and what you think is important for your child in their early learning years. Simply ask the questions and complete the activities using the back of the book, and you will be surprised where the conversations lead you.
