The Little Christmas Tree

Follow the adventures of the little Christmas tree as he grows up in the middle of the forest and wonders where the taller trees go when they get chopped down. Just before Christmas, a family of bears find the little tree. They carefully dig him up, put him in a pot, and carry him to their home. There he is decorated with glistening glass ornaments, twinkling tinsel, and a shiny star on top.

All of these details are highlighted with sparkly glitter. Open the living room door to see little tree surrounded by presents – he is a proper Christmas tree now! But what will happen when the decorations come down?

This version of The Fir Tree (1844) has been specially adapted for younger children. The original ending has been given a heartwarming lift with the addition of friendly bears and a valuable environmental message: that a Christmas tree isn’t just for Christmas.
