If you haven’t had the chance to read it but you’d like to talk with your young reader about it, ask them the questions anyway! If you and your young reader would like to do a book club, I’ve provided some questions (and resources for additional book club ideas). Red gets involved and you’ll absolutely fall in love with the characters – from the crow, to the babies who live in Red’s hollows, to Samar and her neighbors. People in the neighborhood have come to the wishtree on May Day for decades, writing their wishes on slips of paper or fabric and tying them to the tree.Ī new family has moved in and they are not being welcomed the way other families have in the past. The book is narrated by Red (the wishtree) and tells the story of the tree’s neighborhood and friends. Wishtree by Katherine Applegate is a truly lovely book and I hope you know some kids who are reading it!
