Born In Greywell, England in 1959, Jane West spent her childhood singing, dancing and acting, both on stage and screen. Her experience with rejection is reflected in this compelling story of a pine tree's dream to become what he thought he was born to be...a Christmas tree. As a child, Jane was always writing stories, songs and poems, but her dream was to one day become a movie star. Through unforeseen circumstances, in 1986, Jane and her six-year old daughter Katie, flew from England to California. As a single mother, she had to alternative but to give up her dream. The struggles and fears that she faced over the years that followed turned out, better than she could have dreamed. Now living with her devoted husband Jay, and their two daughters, Katie and Julia, she is doing what comes naturally in her life-being a Mummy...and writing!
