The Homeless Christmas Tree

Leslie M. Gordon
Illustrated by Court Bailey

A story based on actual events about a funny-looking mimosa treat 
that sits above a busy freeway in Fort Worth, Texas. A formerly 
homeless woman decorated the tree, year after year, so that the
homeless would have a Christmas tree. When she died, neighbors
took over the custom and now decorate it for Easter, Halloween,
and other holidays as well. Look for it on the north side of I-30 near 
the Oakland exit.
