About this product
Product Information
A special edition for adults of Katherine Applegate's New York Times -bestselling novel about an oak tree and a crow who help their neighbors embrace their differences. Trees can't tell jokes, but they can certainly tell stories. . . . Red is an oak tree who is many rings old. Red is the neighborhood "wishtree"--people write their wishes on pieces of cloth and tie them to Red's branches. Along with a crow named Bongo and other animals who seek refuge in Red's hollows, this wishtree watches over the neighborhood. When a new family moves in, not everyone is welcoming, and Red's experience as a wishtree is more important than ever. With a message of inclusion for dreamers and welcomers, this is a book for our lives and times. "A beautifully written, morally bracing story that will leave its imprint on a reader of any age." -- The New York Times Book Review

Praise for wishtree: A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!

The New York Times Book Review "The simplicity of Newbery Medalist Applegate's graceful novel contrasts powerfully with the prejudice it confronts. Narration comes from Red, an enormous red oak near an elementary school that also serves as a "wishtree" for the neighborhood--once a year, residents deposit wishes in Red's branches and hollows....Red's openhearted voice and generosity of spirit bring perspective gained over centuries of observation. It's a distinctive call for kindness, delivered by an unforgettable narrator. "-- Publishers Weekly, starred review "Applegate introduces another quiet, resilient protagonist who -- like the caged gorilla in The One and Only Ivan and the working-class boy in Crenshaw -- speaks movingly to a noisy, fractious world . -- The Washington Post " The story's wit and humor keep it from being heavy-handed, as do vivid portrayals of minor characters, especially Bongo, the sarcastic crow who is Red's best friend. This is a book made for family sharing and discussion. "- -Raleigh News & Observer "Timely, necessary, and brimming with heart." -- Booklist, starred review "Newbery Award-winning author Applegate meets high expectations in this tale told by a tree named Red, a red oak who is "two hundred and sixteen rings old." ... Another stunning effort from Applegate. This thoughtful read is a top choice for middle graders."-- School Library Journal, starred review "This swiftly moving yet contemplative read is great for early middle grade, reluctant or tentative readers, or precocious younger students. A deceptively simple, tender tale in which respect, resilience, and hope triumph. "-- Kirkus Reviews, starred review "This gentle yet powerful book is suitable for all ages...and its message remains more vital than ever. "-- BookPage "Inspires hope for positive change. Perfect for a powerful classroom read, Wishtree is another winner for Applegate."-- Voices of Youth Advocates, starred review ________ Praise for Crenshaw : A New York Times Bestseller A Publishers Weekly Bestseller "This accessible and moving novel demonstrates how the creative resilience of a child's mind can soften difficult situations, while exploring the intersection of imagination and truth." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "A compelling and unflinchingly honest treatment of a difficult topic." -- School Library Journal , starred review "The tone is warm and, occasionally, quirkily funny, but it doesn't sugarcoat the effects of hunger and vulnerability." -- The Horn Book , starred review, Praise for wishtree: A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!

I ordered the adult edition & NO where on the book does it SAY it’s the adult edition. Except for the cover design, it is exactly the same as the you edition, including the exact words on any given page number. Books were not as good condition as I expected. Stickers & wear on covers. I was able to remove the stickers.

This item didn’t come in exactly as pictured, but the seller responded immediately and was very gracious in offering me a partial refund even bough I wasn’t expecting one for what I paid for the item. I have bought from this seller before, and they are reputable and stand behind the products they sell. My other transactions with them have been perfect. Great communication. Packaging and price were good. Fairly fast shipping, too. Thanks.
