This story will fill the hearts of readers, young and old alike, with joy.Held in easily readable type for young and older readers.Readers learn, how German Christmas can be prepared and celebrated.A short read-through of The Story of the Little Fir Tree: Slowly but surely it grew colder, and the wind grew stronger and stronger. Some of his fellow trees, those at the edge of the wood, lost their leaves and were totally naked! The little fir tree was pleased that he didn't shed his needles. Occasionally one would fall off, but another one would soon grow in its place. It grew colder and colder; winter was coming.One day, the little fir tree heard a buzzing noise coming closer and closer, and the ground was shaking too! The time had come; men from the nursery came and walked up and down the rows, examining the trees. Sometimes they stopped and painted a cross right at the top of a tree's trunk.Then they came with a horribly loud machine. They called the machine, which to the little fir tree seemed to come straight from hell, a 'power saw', and with it they cut down a few of the fir trees. They cut the trunk very low down, and the trees fell to earth with a groan.The little fir tree was horrified, surely it would be his turn next? Then what? His thoughts were racing, and he was so scared he forgot to stretch his branches out as beautifully as he normally did. "Don't be scared" one of the larger trees near him said, "You're still so small, it's not your time yet." The little fir tree was reassured, and started enjoying watching the proceedings. Some of the fallen trees were put into very tight nets, so tight that their branches were pressed firmly into their trunks. Others were just placed on the large trailer, which had been driven into the clearing. The trailer was towed away by a tractor, and the large gate in the fence was closed again.The buzzing noise become quieter and quieter, until the little fir tree could hear only the noises of nature which had become so familiar to him. After all the noise of the morning it seemed too quiet to the little fir tree, and his thoughts were racing again: What happens to the trees that are taken away? Why were some put in nets when others weren't?How did the men from the nursery decide which tree went where?The other trees, the older ones, couldn't answer his questions either, so the little fir tree had no option but to wait and see. The little fir tree simply had to know though! His curiosity was too great, and he had to find out if he had any chance of becoming a Christmas tree! Days turned into weeks, and the first snow began to fall. The little fir tree felt beautiful cloaked in glittering white snow. This must be a magical time, he thought. Indeed it was a magical time; the Twelve Days of Christmas had begun. Wonderful things happen during the special time between Christmas and Epiphany; creatures of nature, and those from more ghostly worlds, reveal themselves much more readily than at other times of the year.So it came to pass that one day the little fir tree met a young angel, a creature radiating beauty and light, who could answer his questions with patience and love. Finally he could experience the true meaning of Christmas, and what it would mean to be a Christmas tree.His wish one day to be a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, standing in a family's living room surrounded by a family with small children, grew even stronger. The young angel spoke to him, saying: "Be grateful for your wonderful life here, and pray that you'll one day be a Christmas tree. God fulfils wishes, when you truly believe them, and ....
