Is There a Santa Claus?
Virginia was a little girl/who wanted to know about Santa Claus. She sent a question to The Sun , an American newspaper,/in 1897. It said:/
Dear Editor,/
I am 8 years old.
Some of my little friends say/there is no Santa Claus.
Please tell me the truth;/is there a Santa Claus? Virginia O’Hanlon
In 1927,/the national broadcasting station in Finland/made an announcement. They said/that Santa Claus lives with his gnomes in Lapland/in the north of the country. His post office is in a village/which is on the Arctic Circle. Thousands of letters are sent to Santa/from children all over the world. He and the gnomes are busy writing replies/every day.
The editor of The Sun wrote his answer/in the newspaper:/
Yes,/Virginia,/there is a Santa Claus. You can’t say/that something you can’t see does not exist. Santa Claus exists like love and devotion,/although you can’t see them. In one thousand or even ten thousand years,/he will continue/to make the hearts of children happy.
