George Wells has been a songwriter for many years and recently came across some sheet music for a song he wrote long ago. It reminded him of the sweet and simple song he wrote for Christmas and decided to make it into a children's story.

Pee Wee has lived in the forest for years and each time the Christmas tree season rolls around, he hopes to be chosen as one of the trees to be cut and taken to the store. Sadly, year after year, he is overlooked because of his size. He is just too small to show more be an adequate Christmas tree. Until, finally, he is chosen and taken to a store, where again he sits and waits and is overlooked by those who want the biggest and the best trees.

Pee Wee is sad, but doesn't lose hope. You'll have to read to find out if Pee Wee's Christmas wish comes true! Will a family realize he is the perfect size and allow him to bring them joy on Christmas morning?

This is a very sweet story and a reminder that big or small, there is a job and a place for everyone. Pee Wee encourages the reader to never give up and to remain hopeful.

It's a quick read with large print and colorful illustrations. It definitely put me in the mood for the Christmas season. I like that it has a positive message that works for any time of year as well.

Excellente comédie digne des belles réussites américaines des années 50.
Lauren Bacall, belle et d'une folle élégance, a de quoi fasciner. Elle trouve en Gregory Peck un interlocuteur plutôt à sa taille.
Le film pétille, se joue de toutes les situations que l'affrontement des univers du couple fraîchement marié produit (elle est dessinatrice de mode, il est journaliste sportif spécialisé dans la boxe) et ça fonctionne à merveille.
C'est drôle, intelligent et malicieux.
