Tis the season to read holiday stories and watch yule-themed films. What's your fave Christmas story?
PostPosted: Thu Dec 25, 2008 12:32 am


The classic A Christmas Carol is probably my favourite written holiday tale. You know with Scrouge and the ghosts of past, present, and future? I think we all wonder what it would be like to be visited by those ghosts.

As for a film, I love Rudolf. There's probably a few movies entitled that, however, I'm referring to the one where the characters look like puppets and there's an island of misfit toys and an elf that wants to be a dentist.

not so much a Christmas story per say, but it is the Ice Queen by Hans Christian Anderson. I always read it at Christmas time whee

Being the childish person that I am, my favorite Christmas story is one of the old kids classics, A Year Without A Santa Claus. I love Snow Miser!!!

OOOOOOOOoooooooooooohhhhh....
The Nutcracker. I have the first part on my profile. It's the best movie ever. *sighs like a fangirl*

Oh. And I cannot remember the title, but it was the best story.... it was about a tin soldier with one leg who fell in love with a paper ballerina. In the end they both died.... Oh I remember. The Steadfast Tin Soldier.

Hmm.. There are so many. I love Rudolph like Min and also The Year without a Santa Claus.

I also like this one about a donkey who was like kicked out of his stable with his mother. His mom dies and it ends up that Mary and Joesph ride him to the stable they stay at when Jesus is born. Oh it was Nestor the Long Eared Christmas Donkey.
