Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Mia was all set for Christmas. She had the turkey and the cranberry sauce, a big bone for Murphy and a juicy herring for Mopp, the mistletoe and the decorations. All she needed now was a tree. But on her way to get one, she stopped to help an old man who had slipped on the ice. Then she stopped to help a little boy who had lost his cap. Before she knew it, it was too late to get a tree. Christmas without a Christmas tree just isn't the same, Mia said sadly. And then, there was a knock at the door.
"First published in Switzerland under the title Weihnachtsbaum für Mia."--P. facing t.p.
Mia is ready for Christmas except for a tree but on her way home with one, she stops to help an old man who has fallen, leaving the tree behind, and soon it is too late to find her tree, in a story about the real gifts of Christmas.
Translated from the German.
