Abie Alba

Abie Alba wants to be a Christmas tree! But when nobody takes him home from the nursery, Abie thumbs his nose at his roots on Christmas Eve and does what no Christmas tree before him has ever dared to do: Abie pulls his roots out of the ground! Together with Teggie, a cheeky and impertinent angle spider, Abie makes his way through the winter night to follow his big Christmas tree dream. An enchantingly playful and fun packed Christmas story with lots of heart, humor and a happy ending by actress and screenwriter Katrin Bühring. For children from ages 5 and for the whole family. A tree fairy tale about wishes and dreams, friendship and courage, charity and security, and about anyone who has ever been uprooted, but also about nature conservation, sustainability, consumer behavior and plastic use.

Katrin Bühring, born in the GDR in 1977, is a German actress and author. She has been in many German series and film productions. "Abie Alba - I Wanna Be A Christmas Tree" is her first children's book.
