Is There a Santa Claus?
In 1927,/Finland’s radio announced,/“Santa Claus lives in Lapland. He enjoys reading letters/sent by children.”
Before that,/in 1897,/a question was sent/to The Sun ,/an American newspaper.
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//
An editor/working for The Sun /replied.
Yes,/Virginia,/there is a Santa Claus. You can’t say/that something does not exist/because you can’t see it. Santa Claus is/like love and devotion. In one thousand or even ten thousand years,/he will continue/to make children happy,/although you can’t see him.
