Description
It's nearly Christmastime, and you know what that means- time to choose a Nova Scotian tree to send to Boston! Buddy the Bluenose Reindeer is called on to help choose the perfect tree to send to the city that helped Halifax through the Explosion back in 1917. Of course, with his nose so blue and his aim so true, Buddy easily finds the perfect tree. Little does everyone know that that's the easy part. Once again, Buddy is called on to rescue the lives of loads of sailors- and one perfect Christmas tree.
Told in Bruce Nunn's classic quirky, pun-filled style, Buddy the Bluenose Reindeer and the Boston Christmas Tree Adventure is a delight. With a Nova Scotian take on The Night Before Christmas threaded throughout, Buddy's amazing adventure is sure to appeal to readers young and old.
About the authors
Brenda Jones has spent years roaming the woods and fields across Canada, gathering and studying the herbs that live here in order to better understand the properties of these amazing plants. With a background as an artist and illustrator, she began painting each herb in detail to help with identification, and eventually published her first herb book, Medicinal Herbs of Eastern Canada. She has now completed the Western version, and continues to expand her own backyard herb garden, filling her cupboards with tinctures, oils, and herbal teas.
Bruce Nunn is a popular storyteller and the author of seven books, including Nova Scotia History with a Twist, More History with a Twist, Buddy the Bluenose Reindeer, and Buddy the Bluenose Reindeer and the Boston Christmas Tree Adventure. His Nova Scotia history stories have aired on CBC Radio and Television, earning him an Atlantic Journalism Gold Award; on the Rick Howe Show on News 95.7FM Radio in Halifax; and they've appeared in the Halifax Herald and the Halifax Daily News.
