Eduardo Marti marks his debut in the literary scene with the release of “The Christmas Tree Story” (published by WestBow Press). As families prepare for the upcoming Yuletide, this book offers readers a heartwarming tale that reframes one of the world’s most beloved holiday symbols — the Christmas tree — as a reminder of God’s love, his promise and the purpose of Jesus’ birth.

The book arrives at a moment when many parents and grandparents are looking for ways to help children understand the spiritual meaning of Christmas amid the commercial rush. Written in warm, accessible language for young readers, the story emphasizes that Christmas is not about the gifts under the tree but about who came to save the world: Jesus. The narrative begins with creation and the first sin, then traces God’s promise of restoration to the birth of Jesus. Marti explains how the familiar elements of the Christmas tree — the star, the lights, the gifts — reflect that promise. The star symbolizes the one that guided the shepherds to Bethlehem; the lights point to Jesus as the light of the world and the gifts represent God’s greatest gift of all.

“I want readers to put the book down and look at their Christmas tree with new eyes, recognizing it as a beautiful, tangible symbol of God's perfect, loving plan of redemption” the author states. “In a time when people seek more authenticity, the book elevates the everyday Christmas tree into a teaching tool, helping families create a more intentional, faith-centered holiday tradition that fosters deeper conversation.”

Released ahead of the holidays, “The Christmas Tree Story” fills a gap in seasonal children’s literature. Unlike most titles that focus only on the Nativity scene, this book connects Genesis to Christmas, providing a richer, more complete biblical context for young readers.

“The Christmas Tree Story” By Eduardo Marti is available at Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
