From the Golden Books archives comes a classic Christmas tale by a master storyteller and one of the great Golden Books illustrators.

A forest is hushed for the animals' Christmas. The elephant brings a fir tree from far away, and the animals gather silently. . . . The kangaroos decorate the tree with pinecones, and the giraffe places a star at the top.
