Branches of Hope, The 9/11 Survivor Tree by Ann Magee Illustrated by Nicole Wong

This new picture book frames its true story around a tree discovered burned and buried by debris after the 9/11 attacks. It describes one of the saddest days in our history, but flowing through the story is a message that we rise up. The story ends on a note of hope. It’s a gentle and positive way to share the memory of that terrible day of profound loss and tragedy with our younger generation.
