Oh, Christmas Tree!
Oh, Christmas Tree! | Sue Hendra
38 posts | 1 read
It's Christmas time and every tree on the street is beautifully decorated - except for one! This tree refuses to stand in a corner wearing glittery decorations, instead wanting to do a bit of baking, go for a bike ride, sit and watch the telly and even go skating... But the little gang of decorations, Bauble, Belle and the Tinsel Snake, need the tree to behave so they can fulfil their decorating destinies. Will they manage to persuade Tree to stand still and be decorated? They just might, thanks to Belle's crafty brainwave...Oh, Christmas Tree! is the wonderful second Christmas title from the creative pair behind Snowball, Sue Hendra and Paul Linnet. This festively fun story is full of their usual warmth and wit, with brilliant characters and a very funny rhyming text.

#ChristmasCheer #Tree my friend said you need more ornaments, I said no , I don‘t . My most precious ones are not on the tree this year , several young cats in the household, so I‘m unless I have a chain link fence to protect it , the best of the best ornaments, not out this year !🎄😹😼

As requested, here be a Christmas tree 😁😊🎄

It isn't mine, but it IS the one at my hair salon (where I had an appointment much earlier today) and I must say it's the very first upside-down tree I've ever come across!

peanutnine Wow! That's a space saver for one thing 🤔🎄 2y
Librariana @Hooked_on_books I think that's a healthy reaction to have 🤣 I was also quite undecided about it... but like @peanutnine and @Andrew65 so expertly put it, it IS a unique space saver for certain! It's... unusual alright 😁😊🎄 2y
Librariana @DieAReader Very different! But I do love that each section of ornaments matches the lights 😁 2y

Our tree is up. But so far it only has lights on it. We are slowly testing it to see how the new kittens take to it. One likes to climb it and one likes to eat it. I‘m not sure if it will get decorated this year. lol

Here‘s Daily Challenge for Day 1 #WinterReadathon. My son in law chopped this down for me at a small Mom-and-Pop tree farm. So far I only got as far as the lights….

Our Christmas tree went up today and it‘s definitely a Charlie Brown tree. We waited too late trying to decide whether to even have a tree with the house under a lot of renovations. So the pickings were sparse. But we are happy with it. We couldn‘t miss our #Christmastradition. 20 points plus 1 And entry into the #xmastreecontest for 10 points plus 1 #wintergames #merryreaders @Clwojick

Crazeedi It's not a Charlie brown tree at all! Its beautiful! Wait till we put ours up, we are cutting one of our own, and they're very small and charlie brownish, lol 4y
Butterfinger It is gorgeous. I love the angel topper. 4y

My 2nd entry for the #xmastreecontest. The first being my book tree. I'm not one of those people that do a themed tree, or a pretty tree either. Our tree has always been about tradition... which I guess this counts for holiday tradition as well. Our tree has ornaments collected over the years that represents us as individuals, as a couple, and as a family.

Non book post. How gorgeous are my kids?! Missing their older brothers. My youngest is unmasked because there wasn‘t anyone around and we were in a field on a huge tree farm. My girlie is masked because once you fix the mask, you don‘t take it off. 😂🎄😷❤️
