Weihnachten bei Astrid Lindgren. Was für ein hyggeliges Gefühl! In "Wie wir in Småland Weihnachten feierten", einer ihrer letzten Geschichten, erzählt Astrid Lindgren vom Weihnachtsfest bei ihr zu Hause, als sie ein kleines Mädchen war: vom Tannenbaumschlagen, dem Warten auf die Bescherung und dem Festessen bei der Großmutter. Zusammen mit ihrer Erzählung der Weihnachtsgeschichte, "Weihnachten im Stall", sowie "Guck mal, Madita, es schneit" über die Vorweihnachtszeit der Schwestern Madita und Lisabet träumen wir uns beim Zuhören ins weihnachtliche Småland.
