Engelmann the Footloose Christmas Spruce Lynn Mills

He seems like such a quiet, ordinary Christmas tree - but when the Hurley family takes him home, something wonderful happens.

Maybe it's the decorations (handmade by the way), or the beaming smiles of the kids, or his proud, happy name - Engelmann?

Who knows?

Follow this special Christmas Spruce from the forest to the Hurley home and beyond.

Engelmann beomes the center of the family's holiday season, among the gifts and the songs and the happiest of times.

Christmas with Engelmann is great, but what's a young tree to do when it's all over and the kids go back to school?

Uh oh.

Engelmann - facing the holiday trash heap - is no ordinary tree. He makes a run for it...
