Résumé

"The Birds' Christmas Carol" by Kate Douglas Wiggin is a touching narrative centered around the Bird family, particularly their daughter Carol, who was born on Christmas Day. Carol, a bright and generous child, is unfortunately bedridden due to a chronic illness. Despite her condition, she remains the heart of the family, spreading joy and love. The story unfolds during the Christmas season, highlighting Carol's desire to make the holiday special for the less fortunate Ruggles family, who live nearby. Carol plans a Christmas dinner and a tree for the Ruggles children, using money she earned by contributing a story to a magazine. The narrative beautifully captures the spirit of Christmas through Carol's selflessness and the warmth of family bonds. The Ruggles children, though initially overwhelmed by the grandeur of the Bird household, are welcomed with open arms and experience a Christmas like never before. The story emphasizes themes of kindness, compassion, and the true meaning of Christmas, as Carol's actions inspire those around her to appreciate the joy of giving and the importance of family.
