Charming Christmas story set in Brooklyn about two Lebanese immigrant children whose grandmother tells them that, in Lebanon, the trees kneel at Christmas. They decide that they would like to see if the trees will do it in Brooklyn as well. Good portrait of post-WWII immigrant life in America; absolutely lovely illustrations. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
After Grandmother explains why the trees in Lebanon kneel at Christmas, Afify and Hanna hope to witness a similar miracle in Brooklyn's Prospect Park. No library descriptions found. |

This author is a winner. I fell in love with her Betsy-Tacy books, but have found other of her works are just as wonderful to read. The children are typical children, and in this particular tale we see a slice of first and second generation immigrants mingling their old world traditions with the new ones of their adopted land. Wonderful read. ( )
