About the Book

The Queen and the First Christmas Tree

Queen Charlotte brought her family’s festive holiday yule bough from Germany to England.

While planning a Christmas Day party in 1800 at Windsor Castle for over 100 children, she realized a single bough isn’t enough. So she brought in the whole tree instead, making it the first known Christmas Tree in England.

This story tells a little known fact about a favorite holiday tradition.
