The Year Christmas Was (Almost) Cancelled

by Katja Alves, illustrated by Sophia Schrade

This year it’s looking more and more like Klara’s Christmas will be cancelled. Her parents, at any rate, are doing absolutely nothing to get ready for it. So she takes over and tries, at her mother’s behest, to prepare a sustainable, environmentally friendly Christmas. And so it comes to pass that the Christmas tree resembles the floor mop, which up until a moment ago was standing in the corner.

  • A different way to teach environmental awareness: cheeky, inventive, and unconventional
  • A different take on the Christmas story: who, pray tell, has ever combined Christmas with environmental awareness? It’s possible, though – and fun!
