 My Review: 

Bruce the Spruce- A New York City Fairytale About the True Meaning of Christmas Trees is a sweet little story about an artificial Christmas tree that goes an adventure, journeying all over New York City. I thought this was a cute tale where Bruce learns some very valuable lessons while passing them on to the readers. All of us can learn from this book about finding the beauty in giving to joy others. Everyone has their way to shine. I would love to see this book made into an animated Christmas special to watch over and over again every year. 

Bruce the Spruce- A New York City Fairytale About the True Meaning of Christmas Trees is illustrated by the talented artist, Pablo Andreeta. The pictures are colorful and vivid. They perfectly follow story and help bring the characters to life. They help the story flow and make it easy for younger readers stay focused on the story.

Bruce the Spruce- A New York City Fairytale About the True Meaning of Christmas Trees is getting a very well deserved five plus stars from me. I highly recommend it for readers who are between the ages of six and ten. It would be a great addition to add to the family’s yearly Christmas time reading. 

I received a hard cover copy of Bruce the Spruce- A New York City Fairytale About the True Meaning of Christmas Trees from the publisher but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
