THE REAL STORY (By Cristina Maldonado)

Some years ago a little girl was walking down the street and she heard two boys saying: "This year my parents are going to buy me a PSP and a PS3". Sarah, the little girl started to think about the Three Wise Men, and she wondered if they actually were the parents.

When she arrived home she asked her father: "Daddy, if I ask a question will you answer honestly?" Her father said: "Of course, Sarah, what do you want to know?". "Are the Three Wise Men real, or are they the parents?"Sarah asked. "Well- answered her father- when Jesus was born, the Three Wise Men went to Belen and gave him some presents. They wanted to give presents to every child, but they couldn't, and they asked to all parents if they could help them. And that is why today all parents continue doing what the Three Wise Men wanted to do"

SANTA CLAUS (By Irene Montes)

 The tradition tells that when Santa Claus comes to town, children must be sleeping. But one night, a girl didn't want to sleep because she wanted to see Santa Claus because she didn't write him a letter. She was awake all night waiting for him, but Santa didn't come. In the morning she cried a lot, because she couldn't see him, and she went to her bedroom. There she found everything she wanted, and some other presents. She continued crying, but now she was very happy! She learned that when Santa comes, you must sleep, because you will not see him!

                       RUDOLPH, A SPECIAL REINDEER (By Rosa Muñoz)

Rudolph was a very special reindeer. He lived in the North Pole with his mother Mary and his father Phillip. Usually, reindeers in the North Pole fly one hundred milles in two days looking for biscuits and sweets for the winter. But Rudoplh loved Christmas and he took some biscuits and milk for Mother and Father Christmas. They liked the present very much, and they allow Rudolph to go with them, and that is why Rudolph has a red nose, because he is very excited to see his dream coming true.

SANTA CLAUS AT HOME (by Isabel Roldán)

 Once upon a time, Santa Claus came to town and he came to my home. He was going down the chimney, when he got trapped. When he could go down he looked for the Christmas tree, and he put many presents under it, but when he was going to go, my younger brother got up and saw him. Santa tried to explain him why he was there, and my brother understood him, and promised him he was not going to tell a thing about that. But I know their secret. Do you know why? Because I'm Santa's secret sister, and I know everything that happens in the world and I help Santa to guess which children have been good and which have been bad!

SANTA'S REINDEERS ARE ILL! (By Estela M. Susín)

One day Santa's reindeers were ill at Christmas Eve, and Santa was very worried because he needed them to give presents to every child. But a girl heard it, so she travelled to the North Pole and she came to Santa's house and gave a medicine to the reindeers. They drank the potion and came better.

Then, they went from house to house to deliver all the presents. They went into a very big house, with lots of food, but they didn't leave any presents because the family was not good to other people. After that, they went into a small house, where the people were very poor, and they gave them a lot of presents because this family was very kind and nice to others. Next day, the rich family was very sad, and they decided to change their behaviour, and the poor family was very happy.   

SANTA EXISTS (by Isabella Testino)

Once upon a time there were two brothers, Max and Alice, who lived in a city called New York. They didn't believe in Santa Claus because their friends always said: "Santa Claus is for children and babies, but you are not a baby, are you?" But when Alice and Max were younger they always wrote letters to Santa Claus, and put biscuits and milk in the table for him. When Santa realised that he had an idea so they could believe in him.

One day when Max and Alice where playing computer games, they heard a noise. Max said:
"Alice did you hear something?"
"No, why?"
"I don't know. I think I heard a noise, but it doesn't matter"
When they went to bed, Santa came into their dreams and showed them images of the last Christmas. Max and Alice were very happy. Then they got up and looked each other:
"Did you have the same dream, Alice?"
"Yes, it was fantastic!"
"And now, what?"
Alice ran into the living room and they looked if Santa was there
"Santa, you are here- said Alice- Sorry, we didn't believe in you! We want to help you to deliver the presents."
Santa accepted, and Alice and Max were very happy and started to believe in him again
