    Introduction to this Winter Tale

    ‘Well, it is Christmas time once more again. I hope you have a fire blazing, a nice pot of tea and your favourite chocolate biscuits next to you. Is it snowing outside? I hope it is …..falling snowflakes make Christmas so much more magical. So settle back and make yourself comfortable…….for I would like to tell you this tale of what happened in the North Pole last Christmas.’

A pair of stout old broom handles kept the scarecrow standing very straight. His eyes were made from shiny black buttons, his nose from a carrot and his smiling black mouth from the stroke of paint brush.

    From the winter sky swooped down a crow and it landed upon one of the scarecrow’s twig arms. Well Mr Scarecrow you are guarding Farmer Smith’s sprout field this Christmas! The crow squawked. The scarecrow did not move his beady black eyes from the stalks, on which were hung the growing sprouts. Every year Farmer Smith grew his crop of sprouts to feed his pigs in winter when food was scarce. His children did not like the taste of his fresh sprouts when they were boiled and served with Christmas dinner.

    In the field the tallest green stalk carried the most sprouts and the biggest one that had grown. It was upon these stalks
