A
woodcarver and his wife and two children live in a remote house in the forest where
he cuts the wood for his work.
On
Christmas Eve he goes into town with all the many toys and gifts he has carved
in order to sell them.
In
his absence the children decorate the little tree outside their house with
painted pinecones, straw bows and other decorations so that their father would
see it.
But
he was later leaving town than he planned because people still wanted to buy
his toys, so it was dark as walked through the forest and he lost his way.
Until
he saw a distant light in the darkness which he followed and when he got closer,
he could see it was the candle on the Christmas tree that led him home.
