Voyaging from cities to plains and in renderings of things miniature to grand, Wendell and Florence Minor lead young readers on an imaginative journey across America in tribute to one of our most beloved symbols -- the Christmas tree.

Croesus Kites Relates a Fairy Tale. Night had drawn its sable curtain over the Shenandoah Valley, and maintain and lowland were wrapped in sombre blackness. A great mass of threatening clouds loomed up in the southwest, outlined against the darker sky, by the flashes of lightning that, ever and anon, gleamed out along the distant horizon.
