Description
All trees are born in summer. Fir trees are among them. The Fir tree Tukoni makes sure that they grow and get stronger for the winter. However, one tree sprouts in the middle of winter, and no one knows exactly where it will appear. No one except the partridge Tukoni. Yet, when this special tree is born, all the forest inhabitants celebrate its arrival. After all, this happens on a special day - the birthday of all the kind spirits of the forest: the Tukoni!
