Alfred

Based on a true story, the journey of Alfred the Christmas tree provides inspiration, hope, and meaning for all ages.

Alfred, an evergreen tree, arrives into a family as a young sapling in a cup. Carefully nurtured by his family, he faces challenges on the way to discovering his true calling. Over time, he grows into a towering Christmas tree that dances with the breeze and shares light, joy, and wonder with the community.

Caroline Wilson Ellison has an undergraduate degree from Princeton University and a Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania. She is the mother of two boys and lives outside Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, not far from Alfred. This is her first book.
