In the middle of a forest there was a little tree standing among many big trees. He was very at not being as big as the others. When the birds flew into the forest and their houses, he used to say to hem, “Come and have a rest in my body!” But the birds always said, “Oh, no. You’re too small!” The worst part was when people came to choose trees, they would pass him by he was too small. The other trees said that when they were taken away by people, they might be the mast (桅杆) of a large ship, go far away from the , and see many wonderful things; or they become part of a fine house in a great city, and experience life there. All these were just dreams to the little tree.
One cold morning, some people came searching the forest. “There are that are little enough,” they said.
“Here is one,” said one man. “It’s just the right .” And he chose the little tree.
The little tree was very happy because he knew they were about to take away. Later all kinds of beautiful things were all over him. The children all said, “ beautiful!” “It’s the Christmas tree we’ve ever seen!”
, the little tree knew what he was. He was a Christmas tree! He was just little enough to be the nicest Christmas tree in the world!
