The story of The Broken Christmas Tree is all about one lonely tree on a tree farm in Pennsylvania which no one cares for or picks for their home at advent time. Unfortunate things happen as time goes on, meaning several years; and after a time, the tree believes it will never help celebrate the true meaning of Christmas. Now, although we don't believe trees have feelings and understand that the people who reject it year after year really mean no bad intentions, the lesson to be taught is that people do feel hurt emotionally when they are passed by for all kinds of reasons. After many years of working with children having special needs and most of all emotional issues, the author writes this tale with the understanding that adults in the lives of all our children can use it as a stepping-stone to teach about bullying and self-esteem. The positive emphasis is that none of us know the plan for our life in totality, and there is always a special reason God has for each of us. So will the tree fully understand why it was left behind and what the rest of its life was going to be? Read the story and enjoy His coming to earth for us this season.

This Christmas calls for a special touch of magic… December was always a special time for seaplane pilot Morgan Adair, but after losing her parents six years ago, the holiday is a quiet affair. When her siblings announce plans to sell the family home, Morgan longs to experience her favorite, now-forgotten tradition one more time: a lighted tree that, for over a hundred years, has appeared floating on a boat in the harbor every Christmas Eve. The Taylors were always rivals to the Adairs in the once-thriving fishing village of Christmas Tree Cove, but Jesse Taylor was much more. He wanted to be understanding when Morgan set aside their plans to escape to Chicago in order to hold her family together, but his future as a successful freelance photographer soared on without her. As Morgan dives deeper into the history of the mysterious holiday appearance, she discovers that true love has always been at the heart of the annual tradition. Can the wonder of Christmas and a few surprises along the way rekindle that love for Morgan and Jesse too?
