The Santa Tale: “Once upon a time, there lived a man who had three lovely daughters. The father of these three beautiful princesses was sad because without some gold, he could not find for them the right princes, who took care of them in his absence.It so happened that one fine night, there appeared a bag full of gold in the stockings this man had hung before the fire to dry. So the man married his first princess to a worthy prince with this gold. Then to his surprise, appeared another bag of gold, with which he married off his second daughter. And so happened one more time. In this way all three daughters found good husbands and the old father was happy.You know who mysteriously dropped the gold into the stockings? It was the generous big fat man, Saint Nicolas, who we lovingly call Santa Claus."
