The Christmas Spiders

In this Christmas tale from Germany, Storyteller Marion Leeper tells us about 'Tante' an old woman who is busily preparing her house on Christmas Eve to impress Christ Kindl - the bringer of Christmas. Tante cleans and polishes, and sweeps out the spiders and their webs, and decorates a particularly beautiful tree. When Christ Kindle visits, the exiled spiders beg him to let them into the house to see the tree. But will a house full of spiders stop the Christmas magic from happening?
