Der Weihnachtsstern

In the magical Elf Forest lives a little elf called Fridolin. He lives in a cosy little cottage and is already really looking forward to Christmas.

Every year, Fridolin places his golden Christmas star on the tallest tree in the forest, but this year something terrible happened: as he was carrying the star up, it slipped from his hand and shattered into lots of tiny pieces.
Fridolin was very sad. Without his star, the Christmas Forest didn’t feel properly Christmassy.

Then he had an idea. He gathered pine cones, small twigs and soft moss. With a lot of effort, he crafted a new Christmas star from them.
When he placed the star on the tallest tree, it suddenly began to glow golden. Its light was even brighter than that of the old star!
Fridolin smiled happily. With a little imagination and love, he had managed to create something wonderful.

And ever since that day, Fridolin’s homemade Christmas star has shone over the magical elf forest every year.
