Reinhard Kuhnert erzählt die schönsten Weihnachtsmärchen und Sagen.

Ebenezer Scrooge era un hombre avaro. Su avaricia y frialdad arrugaron sus facciones, enrojecieron sus ojos y tornaron sus labios de color azul. Hasta su forma de caminar fue endurecida por ahorrar energías. Era tal su avaricia que ni el mal clima podía quitarle una reacción. Para el Sr. Scrooge, Navidad era una fecha caracterizada por la ineficiencia. Detestaba la ineficiencia, el gasto innecesario de dinero en regalos para personas mal agradecidas y caridades para holgazanes y vagabundos indignos de ayuda.

La inolvidable historia del malvado que es visitado en la Navidad por los espiritus de aquellos que quisiera no conocer, es una de esa obras eternas que maravillan cada vez que se conocen.
