Christmas Children Fiction

The Pony Engine and the Pacific Express - a wonderful Christmas Story for Children. It was published in Howell's collection, Christmas Every Day and Other Stories Told for Children (1892). This classic short story from William Dean Howells finds a brother and sister fairly demanding their papa to tell them a story. As a long-standing storyteller, papa is reluctant to dream up something new. The demands of children often mean that a parent will do things they never thought they would, if only to salvage their own sanity. A memorable tale for all ages.

Vor allem aber führt sie die Kinder in stille Anbetung über dem Wunder der Menschwerdung Jesu: Gottes Sohn wird Mensch, um uns mit Gott zu versöhnen.
