Book excerpt: The Twinkling Tree is about an evergreen tree that is cut down by a dad and his boy and is taken to their home to be used as a Christmas tree. At first, the tree did not want to go, but as it was taken inside and decorated, the tree became prideful as he seemed to be receiving all of the attention and started to believe that Christmas was all about him. Then one evening he noticed a table with a wooden stable on it and wondered about its meaning. When Christmas morning came and the boy ran into the room, the tree was surprised to see the boy run straight to the stable and not to him and the gifts. The tree finally recognized his pride and humbled himself as he realized that Christmas is really a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. The purpose of this story is to bring an awareness of our human tendency to put too much focus on the things of Christmas rather than its true meaning.
