Christmas Story

     Once upon a time in a small, poor town, on 24^th of December, everybody was busy preparing things for Christmas Day.

     In spite of having just three turkeys for Christmas dinner and the decorations were made from waste, they were very happy to have something.

     On midnight, everybody was sleeping, and suddenly the Christmas magic happened. Everything changed from poor to rich. The Christmas tree grew and had a lot of golden balls, coloured ribbons and a big star on top. Around the tree, there were a lot of presents  for everyone.

     The houses became bigger and more beautiful, and in the warehouses there was a lot of food for everyone.

In the morning, everybody was very surprised to see all of these things and so they thanked the Christmas spirit.

     After Christmas, the people of this town gave their food to other poor towns.

     Everybody was happy because it was the best Christmas ever!

     Merry Christmas!

Problems in Santa´s Factory

     This story happened during the present world crisis.

     Country presidents worldwide,  defined a new measure of work. All  workers in the world had to work three more hours than the usual, even the elves that work in Santa´s factory.

     They were outraged with this new measure and decided to go on strike during the Christmas Season. Santa Claus had  serious trouble. Maybe all children in the world wouldn´t  get their Christmas presents. He thought  about all the  possibilities to replace the elves. Suddendly he remebered something…

     This problem must be solved by those who caused it.

     So he decided to call all the world leaders to work in his factory. They worked very hard making all the presents and on Christmas Eve everything was ready.

     All the world presidents saw how hard it was to do the elves’ work, and they withdrew this drastic measure.

     All went well with the distribution of the gifts and all the children were happy on the 25^th December with their gifts made by the world leaders.

A Magical Christmas Night

     Once upon a time there was a little boy called Michael. He had a poor family, but he was happy with everything he had. It was Christmas Eve and he was very excited.

     This year he wanted to stay awake to see Santa Claus. Michael waited but Santa never came. Suddenly he heard a noise, it was very loud and strange, like a bomb. He went outside and he couldn´t believe who it was, it was Santa! He fell from his sleigh and the presents were all over the floor. It was a big mess! The boy helped Santa but he was unconscious. Michael needed to do something, and fast. So he organized the presents and put them on the sleigh with Santa. He decided that this year he wanted to deliver the presents to the children all over the world. No child could be left out. He started to fly. The delivery was going well until he stopped at the last house, it looked like the child was awake and he was in trouble. No one could see him delivering presents.

Everyone wanted to see Santa. He hid behind the Christmas tree and put the presents under it. Another child saw that there was someone behind the tree and… suddenly Santa appeared and threw the boy some dust and he fell asleep. Michael was very happy for two different reasons: No one saw him, and above all he saw Santa! He finally stopped at his house and went to sleep. He dreamed about that night until the next morning. When he started to open the presents, there was a little one that said: to Michael with love from Santa. Michael didn´t understand at first, but he finally got it. There were only two people in the entire world that understood its meaning and they were Michael and Santa.
