-Fabricante :
Random House Books For Young Readers
-Descripcion Original:
Review Review, The Horn Book, November/December 2011 Rubel’s story of compassion hits all the right holiday notes; LaMarche’s lush, warm illustrations of glowing Christmas trees and smiling, caring characters drive home the central message of charity. Review, School Library Journal, October 1, 2011 Detailed characterizations and a straightforward tone keep the tender tale from becoming saccharine. LaMarche’s almost impressionistic colored-pencil illustrations put readers in the midst of the action. Review, Publishers Weekly, September 26, 2011 Author/historian Rubel’s story of a Depression-era family’s connection to that first tree-and the ripple effect of its bounties-puts the now magnificent symbol in perspective. LaMarche conveys emotional resonance with gauzy, soft-hued paintings of the inspirational proceedings. “The Carpenter’s Gift captures two of New York City’s greatest traditions the Rockefeller Center tree lighting and giving back to people in need in a way that families can share together all year long.” Michael R. Bloomberg, Mayor of the City of New York “The heartwarming tale told in The Carpenter’s Gift brings together-through beautiful illustrations and a moving, multi-generational story-two great traditions: the Rockefeller Center tree and the neighbor-helping-neighbor program of Habitat for Humanity.” -Jimmy Carter, 39th President of the United States and dedicated Habitat volunteer “Through my support of Habitat for Humanity, I have seen all of the good that can happen when people work alongside each other to build something better. I see the same thread in The Carpenter’s Gift, a sweet story” about a young boy whose life is changed when new friends help his family build a house - Susan Sarandon, actress “My dad was a carpenter who built the house we grew up in, and this book brings to mind his gentle nature and generosity.” - Garrison Keillor, storyteller This modern classic Christmas story teaches children the spirit of the season by bringing together two great New York City traditions: the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree and the neighbor-helping-neighbor program of Habitat for Humanity. Opening in Depression-era New York City, The Carpenters Gift tells the story of eight-year-old Henry and his father selling Christmas trees. They give a Christmas tree to construction workers building Rockefeller Center and celebrate together. Through the kindness of the construction workers and neighbors, Henry gets his wish for a nice, warm home to replace his familys drafty shack. He plants a pinecone from that first Rockefeller Center Tree. As an old man, Henry repays the gift by donating the enormous tree that has grown from that pinecone to become a Rockefeller Center Christmas tree. After bringing joy to thousands as the Rockefeller Center tree, its wood will be used to build a home for another family in need. Written by childrens nonfiction author David Rubel in collaboration with Habitat for Humanity. Gorgeous illustrations crafted by Jim LaMarche.
