Holly, I hope you enjoy this book, it was one of my favorites when I was little.

Love, Daddy

Hello, Holly.

This way, please.

Just ahead, just past these trees, is our home, our Home Sweet Tree.

Home sweet, home sweet, Home Sweet Tree!

Holly, our tree stands tall, fine, fat, and round.

Its roots dig deep into the ground.

Come on in, Holly!

Up we go!

There’s a lot for us to show!

Look, Holly!

Over there!

You know him.

It’s Papa Bear, snoozing in his easy chair.

Papa always takes a snooze while looking at the TV news.

Look, Holly!

Look in there!

You know her.

It’s Mama Bear.

Our mom’s a super cookie maker, a chocolate chip cookie baker!

Yum! Yum! Let’s have some!

Join us, Holly.

Come, and we will all eat cookies in our Home Sweet Tree.

Come, Holly!

Come with me.

There’s more to see in our Home Sweet Tree!

Come and look, Holly.

Look if you dare.

The cellar of our home’s down there.

The light we shine will show the way and chase the spooky dark away.

Holly, this is the place where we store what we don’t need anymore.

Toys and things that we’ve outgrown—­ cradle, crib, baby’s bib, bottles, blocks, toy telephone.

Why keep these things that we store—­ things we don’t need anymore?

Well, Mama says you don’t know when you just might need these things again.

But there is much, much more to see.

Come on, Holly!

Follow me!

All the way to the top of our tree, our home sweet, home sweet, Home Sweet Tree.

To the special room I share with my brother, Brother Bear.

My things are here.

My brother’s things are over there.

My closet’s neat.

I must confess…

my brother’s closet is a mess!

You’ve seen our home inside and out.

Home is what we’re all about.

Good-­bye, Holly!

Please come again.

But will you also tell us when‌

Holly, when we can see your Home Sweet Tree?

Home sweet, home sweet, Home Sweet Tree!
