5 Good News Christmas Stories
Koalas in Trees, Stolen Bikes, and a Child's Wish for the Animals
From 2024:  Ever wondered how a koala ended up on a Christmas tree or how a young Welshman managed to dress all 17 of his dogs in holiday jumpers for a festive photo? Well, these are just a glimpse of the enchanting yuletide tales we're revealing in this episode of 5 Good News Christmas Stories.

From whimsical and unique Christmas wishes of children, to compassionate acts and heartwarming gestures, we have stories that will make your heart glow with cheer. In the spirit of the holiday season, we're also talking about a man's kind act of gifting a stolen bicycle and some coal to a young boy, and the unique advent calendar created by the Zoological Society of London, brimming with beloved snacks for their animal residents. From the simplest requests like a case of mac and cheese, to the more unusual ones like a dead squirrel dog toy and a handheld water vortex toy, we're celebrating the pure, unpredictable imagination of children.
