It is a few days before Christmas. Arnica’s children (who are teenagers now) are going for a walk to the forest.
Suddenly they see a secret door hidden between snowy trees.
-Wow, what is it? they say.
Willy is very curious and brave. He opens the door. The rest of the pigs are scared but they follow him inside.
Inside they see a wonderful Christmas tree in a beautiful room.
– Wow! they say. What is this place?
In the Christmas tree there are pockets with presents. The piglets start to open the presents.
Soon after they see pig Santa Claus entering the room. They quickly hide the presents behind them.
– Oh, it is a pig Santa. He really exists! they think. They are scared. What is he going to do now?
– Ho, ho, ho, ho, what are you doing here? says Santa. Why are you opening these presents? They are not for you. I am very angry. I think I will not give you presents this year!
– Oh no! cry the piglets. We are so sorry. Please forgive us!
– Hmm, I don’t know, says Santa. I think you have to do something for me.
– But what can we do for you Santa?
– I am very busy before Christmas. You can help me pack the presents.
– I like packing presents, says Piggy.
– But I can’t, says Willy.
– I can show you, replies Piggie.
So Santa takes them to his workshop and the children are packing the presents. They are packing toy cars, stuffed toys, dolls, etc.
After two hours Santa comes back to the workshop.
– Your parents can be worried about you now, he says. I think it’s enough, you can go home. I forgive you.
The children leave through the magic door and come back home through the forest.
– I didn’t believe in Santa Claus any more, but he really exists, says Willy.
– Wow that is an adventure! they all agree.
