How
do you celebrate Christmas? Do you go to the mall? Do you cut down
your own tree? Do you make your own ornaments? Do you write a letter
to Santa? In this story a girl who lives with her grandparents will
tell you how she celebrated Christmas in the country: her grandfather chopped
down a tree, the girl and her grandmother got out the ornaments to decorate
the tree, she left cookies, milk and a note for Santa, attended church
services, and celebrated with family and friends. She tells about
taking down the tree and looking forward to spring. Read this story
to see how your celebration compares to hers. (Lois Stroud, South
Carolina Book Awards, 2006) |
