Step-by-step explanation:
Why the Evergreen Trees Never Lose their Leaves, by Florence Holbrook
1. "One little bird had broken its wing and could not fly with the others."
2. "The forest looked warm, and it made its way to the trees as well as it could, to ask for help."
3. First it came to a birch tree. "Beautiful birch tree," it said, "my wing is broken, and my friends have flown away. May I live among your branches till they come back to me?"
"No, indeed," answered the birch tree, drawing her fair green leaves away.
4. "So the spruce gave the lonely little bird a home; the pine kept the cold North Wind away from it; and the juniper gave it berries to eat."
5. "In the morning all those shining, green leaves lay on the ground, for a cold North Wind had come in the night, and every leaf that it touched fell from the tree."
