Once upon a time . . .

In Greenland, a place where it snows every day.

There was a happy little fox named Eggnog Christmas.

…………………………………………….

Eggnog loved HOT CHOCOLATE! He drove his truck to the market everyday and made hot chocolate for his friends.

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

Shortly after one Christmas, Eggnog saw many Christmas trees thrown out with the garbage.

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

Eggnog felt really sad. These once beautiful trees were now garbage.

“I got to save the Christmas trees!”…

………………………………………………………………………………………….

Eggnog hopped on his truck. He drove around and around to pick up all the Christmas
trees his truck could fit.

………………………………………………………………………………………….

Eggnog looked at all the trees and wondered what he could do with them…

…………………………………………………………………………………………

Greenland is covered by snow all year round. “Why don’t I decorate my house with these trees and make it a white Christmas all year round?”

…………………………………………………………………………………………

Drying the trees, decorating the trees, Eggnog is busy every day.

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

Eggnog was very happy that everyone loved his Christmas house. Now, he wondered what he could do with the rest of the trees.

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

Suddenly, he had a brilliant idea…

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

Chop and carve. Chop and carve. Day after day, night after night.

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

It’s the night before Christmas.

There was a mountain of wooden decorations and ornaments set by the fireplace.

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

Eggnog woke up excitedly on Christmas morning.

He loaded everything onto his truck and headed to the market.

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

Eggnog’s friends were already at the market, waiting for Eggnog’s hot chocolate.

Instead of hot chocoLATE…

Eggnog brought out lots of wooden decorations, ornaments and a big sign.

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

Eggnog told his friends the story about how he saved the Christmas trees from the garbage.

He then gave his friends wooden decorations and ornaments he made from the recycled Christmas trees.

Everyone loved the story and Eggnog’s Christmas gifts..

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

It’s cold outside. It’s snowy outside.

Everyone felt bright and warm inside.
