Summary
The old man is a woodcarver, Frederick, who has another use for Little Tree - he wishes to make a gift for the village. He begins to carve Little Tree’s wood into figures of the Nativity. All winter and summer he works to create a creche, a gift of love. Wrapped in soft cloth in a dark box, Little Tree hears Frederick describe the Baby Jesus, the last piece, as the “Heart of it all.” Then he comes to understand that he has become the Heart of Christmas in the form of the infant Jesus.
When Christmas comes again, a new tree stands shivering while Frederick reveals the pieces he has carved. Each figure reflects a face of a villager, much to their delight. But the infant Jesus silences them for each person sees the face of a child they have known and loved.
