what Christmas stands for . Birth of Christ is just an event and the legends are there to explain why Christ was bought in this world of sin. Hence, fight with Evil and vanity is a common theme for most of the stories.
The stories are quite interesting with the essence of mystery, magic, miracle and fancy that they definitely have an universal appeal. They are basically good stories with real characters fighting their bad luck and ultimately meeting their good fortune. The readers get the satisfaction as poetic justice is always done .The world has been divided into black and white or evil and good. There is no modern gray characters and so less complex and easy to understand. Thus they are perfect children stories till date. Why do we really believe all these? Perhaps it is because of the satisfaction we get when the evils are punished or we get the hope of meeting the dream world of Clara in the nutcracker legend. Even if we fail to give a new world to the children we can at least give them Oliver Miller’s “Christmas in the Alley”.
