Review:
Praise for Daphne Benedis-Grab's The Angel Tree:
"Full of the type of warmth and good cheer found in favorite holiday movies . . . Benedis-Grab's lively tale spotlights the time-honored tradition -- and can-do citizens -- that make a small town great . . . As the kids puzzle through clues, they discover things that bring them closer to their families, neighbors, and each other -- all in time for a satisfying, celebratory reveal." -- Publishers Weekly
"The Rockwellian-with-issues setting enhances the cozy small-town feel . . . Part mystery and part holiday high jinks, this will be a little gift to readers who enjoyed Dean Pitchford's Nickel Bay Nick(2013)." -- Booklist
"This quick tale of generosity is as warm and simple as a Christmas postcard." -- Kirkus Reviews
"A satisfying read on many levels--misunderstandings are resolved, lessons are learned, friendships evolve, and positive behavior is rewarded. Be sure to have a box of tissues handy." -- School Library Journal
