Funny, deep, warm, and nuanced, this is Katherine Applegate at her very best--writing from the heart, and from a completely unexpected point of view.

Until a new family moves in.
You might say Red has seen it all.
Along with a crow named Bongo and other animals who seek refuge in Red\'s hollows, this Wishtree watches over the neighborhood.
Red is the neighborhood wishtree--people write their wishes on pieces of cloth and tie them to Red\'s branches.
Red is an oak tree who is many rings old. . . .
Trees can\'t tell jokes, but they can certainly tell stories.
The New York Times- bestselling story of kindness, friendship, and hope.
