The New Year’s Carol is by Johanna Spyri author of Heidi and at least 15 other children’s stories.
The New Year’s Carol finds Joseph and his industrious wife and their son Barty, or Sebastian and their youngest, a daughter named Franzelie living in their Swiss Cottage in the village of Altdorf which is near the mouth of the Reuss, which flows into Lake Lucerne.
That autumn was unusually cold. By October a deep snow had fallen, and in November their little home was nearly buried out of sight. That winter Barty and Franzelie’s mother stopped singing as she went about the home.
With money running short the mother taught Barty a song and surprisingly Franzelie began singing along too. Then the mother had a bright idea, she would take her children to the village and busk on the main street. So the next day in the freezing snow they walked up to the village and began to sing and amazing things began to happen…..
