Father and Mother Robin are looking for a place to build their nest. They find the perfect place inside an abandoned bell, but when Christmas Eve comes the bell is sad because it can't join in the celebrations for Jesus' birthday. What will the animals do to help? Barbara Hocknell was born in Huddersfield and now lives in the village of Almondbury on the outskirts of the town. After World War II, she trained as a teacher and subsequently taught in several different schools. Until her retirement, she spent many years teaching children with special needs.
