Legend of
the The spiders fled upstairs to the attic to escape the broom, for they knew she was far too busy to follow them up there.
On Christmas Eve, as soon as the house became quiet, the spiders slowly crept down for a peek. They scuttled into the living room and oh what a sight they saw! A beautiful Christmas Tree! In their excitement they scurried up the trunk and out along each branch. They were filled with happiness as they climbed among its glittering beauty.
Alas, by the time they had finished climbing, the tree was completely covered with dusty gray spiders' webs.
Midnight came, and Santa Claus came with the gifts for
the children. When he saw the tree, he smiled to see how
happy the spiders were, but he knew how heartbroken the
mother would be if she saw the tree covered with dusty
webs. So he turned the gray spiders' webs to silver and
gold.
The Christmas Tree sparkled and shimmered and was
even more beautiful than before. |
