Sharing Christmas

Its Christmas time in the forest, but this year there isnt much reason for the animals to celebrate. Its been a cold, snowy winter, and the little deer Clara and her mother are worried about finding enough food. Her mother tells Clara to wish on a star, but she doesnt hold much hope for a happy Christmas. The next day more snow falls, but Clara hears the sound of bells in the distance. As they follow the sound, the two deer join up with squirrels, rabbits and birds along the way. When they stumble onto a stash of nuts and berries, they decide to share with all the other animals, in the spirit of the holiday. It turns into a magical, jolly celebration, and now Clara has reason to know that Christmas wishes can come true. This is a beautiful, heart-warming story about the true meaning of Christmas.Westerlund, Kate is the author of 'Sharing Christmas ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780698400740 and ISBN 0698400747.
