Text and Images from The Best Christmas Gift
Winter came and snow covered the valley home of the small fox, Bubu. All the animals hid in their houses. Bubu didn’t like the winter much, but there was one day for which he was anxiously awaiting . . .
Tomorrow was Christmas and Bubu was so excited that he could not fall asleep. What gift would Santa Claus have for him? A new ball? Or skates? Or maybe a bicycle? Or maybe—suddenly something flashed in the sky.
What was it? A falling star? A plane? Or may be a giant bird? Whatever it was it dropped beyond the Dark Forest. Bubu jumped from the bed and put on his scarf.
Brrr . . . it was really cold outside. Earlier in the day, Bubu and his father had cleared the snow from around the house, but the valley was still deeply covered in it.
