In this young reader novel, ten-year-old Jeanie Leclare has just moved to the West Coast from Saskatchewan. She’ s desperately lonely and longs for a new friend. When the girl sitting in front of her at school seems friendly, she feels a little better. Then an excavator arrives and demolishes the cute house next door. Everyone, including Jeanie’ s new friend, Isabelle, is aghast. But Jeanie has a secret, a secret that she knows will turn her new classmates against her. At recess time, the excavator heads for a huge and beautiful cedar next to the school. Isabelle leads a band of kids, including Jeanie, to stop it. That’ s when they discover Jeanie’ s secret: the contracting company that destroyed the house belongs to Jeanie’ s uncle and father. Jeanie promises her new classmates that she’ ll do whatever it takes to protect the cherished tree. Trouble is, she can’ t convince her uncle and father to agree not to cut it down. So now it’ s totally up to Jeanie and Isabelle to come to the cedar tree’ s defence. They are the Tree Musketeers.
