The Magic Cloack

 

Santa Claus lives at the North Pole, on Cristmas Eve the elves have a lot of work to complete the presents.

Finally he leaves.

The travel is rather astir and full of breaks.

In one of  these breaks Santa Claus meets a poor boy but enthusiastic of Christmas.

When Santa Claus sees the  joy in the eyes of the boy, his heart is filled with joy.

Finally, the old man with the white beard comes to the city with his glitter sledge. This year the sledge is very full of packs and packages of all colours.

It’s is beautiful.

Santa Claus is impatient to deliver all the presents to make the children happy.

It is a dark night. At the beginning he doesn’t see…but after a while… he starts to look at something strange. Santa Clause sees that there aren’t any symbols  of Christmas: no trees, no comet, the shopwindows are gloomy.

When Santa Claus’s sledge goes near the window of the school he sees that there aren’t any little drawings.

Santa Claus then knocks at the door of a house to ask for explanations.

An old man comes to open the door who explains the situation: the people is afraid of going out of their houses because there is a war.

When Santa Claus hears these words he pulls out of the  sack a black cloack that wraps all the city to protect it. He rings the bell and calls everybody in the square and makes the biggest Christmas tree, lights up the city, after that he distributes all the presents to young and old.

And the eyes of  the people begin to shine.
