The Memory Tree (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781950323791)

Fred Neff's "Calvin and Dad" book series stem from real life fatherhood experiences with his toddler son, Calvin. The Memory Tree is the first in the series, recounting some actual events from Christmas 2007. The storyline, told in first person through the eyes of a toddler, features young Calvin, who delights in riding in Dad's pickup truck to Big Jim's Farm in search of two trees, a tall one for the house and a short one to be planted in the back yard, called a Memory Tree. As a toddler, Calvin is quite the humorous helper, and together, he and his Dad transform this Christmas, because of a Memory Tree, into a tradition they will recapture for years to come.
