Bible story:
Luke 19:1-10
A Very Short Man
Everywhere Jesus went, there were crowds of people. In one crowd there was a very short man named Zacchaeus. He wanted to see Jesus, but he couldn't see over the crowd. So he climbed a tree. Jesus said, "Zacchaeus, come down so we can go to your house today," Zacchaeus hurried down and took Jesus to his home. Zacchaeus wanted to do good things. He told Jesus that he'd give half of the money he stole to the poor.
