Abstract
Since Ungerer calls this version of The Little Match Girl a fable, I include it in the collection. As always, it is a pleasure to watch Ungerer at work. With the poor girl's last wish on a desperate Christmas Eve, she occasions a storm of wishes descending on her from the skies. She gives these things away to the poor, while the mayor calls out the army. People soon learned to give and serve wherever people needed help. A provocative little story from a great liberal artist.
