A paragraph
on the final page of the book explains the true story behind the
tree
The Christmas Pine is based on a true
story. It celebrates a special tradition that stretches back over
seventy years. Every year, the Mayor of Oslo in Norway presents
the British people with a spectacular Christmas tree. The tree
is a symbol of peace and friendship, and a thank you for the UK's
support during World War II.
Each year, the UK Poetry Society
asks a poet to write a poem to welcome the tree. Julia Donaldson
originally wrote The Christmas Pine to celebrate the
2020 Christmas tree. The poem was performed by London schoolchildren,
and displayed in Trafalgar Square.
Julia Donaldson is
the author of many of the best-loved children's books ever written.
She has been awarded a CBE for services to literature, and is
the most celebrated children's writer in Britain today.
Many of Julia Donaldson's beloved picture books have been made
into award-winning animated films which are regularly shown on the
BBC at Christmas.
