Christmas may be canceled this year because Santa is too tired to deliver all his packages. The forest animals are worried, but when Santa tells them the story of the very first Christmas, when Christ was born, the animals discover the true spirit of the season.

This is a very touching story that ties in both religious and traditional Christmas. Santa falls asleep under a tree. All of the forest animals come to see this. He awakes and tells his favorite story of Christmas. I first purchased this book for my daughter back in the 80's. It was one of her favorites. She kept it. I am now wrapping one for her children as a gift for Christmas. I have kept the original copy to read to my grandchildren every year at Christmas.
