Loved the illustrations and there's a fun pop-up surprise on the last page. I liked the message. There was some discordance among the neighbors, but with a common cause, they worked through a problem that threatened their dear old tree and overcame a prejudice too!

The girlie loves this book. We have it from the library and it's the one she picks every night, and I'm pretty sure not only because it's the longest. The illustrations are very pretty and there's a great pop-up at the end.
