Bookroo's summary
Geraldine is set on having the biggest Christmas tree, one that reaches the ceiling. Despite her mother's and brother Willie's objections, she won't back down. Her determination leads her to choose an enormous tree from Uncle Albert's lot. As they struggle to bring it home, Geraldine's persistence shines through. In the end, her family realizes that her choice, no matter its size or shape, is just right for their holiday celebration. Will Geraldine's vision of the perfect Christmas come true?

With her characteristic persistence and pluck, Geraldine manages to get her tree home. And the family has to admit that her choicewhatever its size (or shape)is just perfect.
