Reading

The Christmas Fairy. It was the day before Christmas. Two poor little children were out in the woods. They wanted to find a Christmas tree. Poor children! they had never had a Christmas tree. Oh dear me, said the little girl. We have nothing to put on a tree. The boy said, “maybe we can find a tree with cones on it. Cones make a tree very pretty. The poor little children looked and looked. But they could not find any trees with cones on them. At last night came. It was dark in the big woods, and the children could not find their way home. “we are lost,” said the little boy. Let us sit here under a tree and wait until morning.

They were very very tired and before long the little girl fell asleep. I must not go to sleep, said the boy , I must take care of sister. He sat there a long long time. All at once he saw a light. It grew bigger and bigger. “look look little sister!” he cried. See the beautiful light! Just as the little girl woke up, the children saw a beautiful fairy in the light. They had never seen a fairy before and were frightened.
