| Summary | "Christmas-Tree Land" by Mrs. Molesworth is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows two young siblings, Rollo and Maia, as they embark on a journey from their home to visit their cousin Lady Venelda at a mysterious castle. As they arrive, the children are fascinated by the enchanting surroundings, particularly the towering fir forests that evoke the spirit of Christmas, and they quickly become intrigued by the possibilities of adventure in this new land. At the start of the tale, Rollo and Maia set out on a long carriage ride to the castle, their expressions a mix of curiosity and weariness from the journey. They discuss their perceptions of the new landscape, with Maia noting the beauty of the Christmas trees surrounding them, while Rollo expresses hopes for their stay. Upon arriving, they feel a mix of excitement and anxiety as they encounter their formal cousin Lady Venelda and begin to explore the castle, all set against a backdrop of looming mysteries and the magic of the woods. The opening chapters introduce a whimsical tone filled with childlike wonder, setting the stage for further adventures and interactions with the magical woods that surround the castle.
