Twiglet

Twiglet: The Little Christmas Tree is a story of discoveries, miracles, and friendships in the lives of Reuben and Rachel Oliver and their Gramma O. Set in the town of Snowflake, with horses, adventures, and a Christmas Tree farm, Twiglet: the Little Christmas Tree is full of human kindness and the results of helping those in need. Along with Gran'pa Shepherd and Bright Starr, the twins end up finding seven special trees.
Twiglet: The Little Christmas Tree is the product of sevens: seven authors, seven chapters, seven hours to draw up the first draft of the first chapter, seven typed pages. There are seven human characters in the first chapter and multiples of seven "art sparks" on each page throughout the story, there are seven letters in Twiglet, and the main author and illustrator, Phyllis Mae Richardson-Fisher, is the seventh of eight children.
We added a forward in the shape of a tree, a table of contents using Roman numerals, a glossary of terms marked with a "snowflake" asterisk to help young readers know the meaning of some of the special words. A cast of human and animal characters (as they appear in the story) complete the reading aids.
Twiglet: The Little Christmas Tree is not just a Christmas story; it takes us through seven years as Rueben and Rachel learn the benefits of helping others, the importance of doing good in school, and that miracles are a part of our everyday life.
