“Yes,” Rina answered.
“It’s a strange desire,” said Pinky. - And I want skis for New Year so I can ride down the hill. Rina, can you come visit us?
“No, sorry, I live underwater and can’t go onto land,” said Rina. If I get into the snow, I'll freeze immediately. We are not designed to walk on land. Maybe you can come visit me and we can swim together?
“Okay, only on a day off, when there are school holidays,” Pinky answered.
- What date will it be? – asked Rina.
“December 23,” answered Pinky. - Rina, why are you so golden?

- What do you think is in it?
“Probably what you wished for,” answered Pinky.
- But I wanted to become a little penguin like you. This is my deepest wish! - Rina exclaimed.
Rina opened the box, and there was ice cream in it. She looked at it in surprise, but ate it, and she wanted to sleep. Rina said goodbye to Pinky. And in the morning, as if nothing had happened, I decided to swim. Then Pinky swims up and says:
- Rina, it’s you, what’s wrong with you?
- And what!? – the fish was surprised.

But in class 2b there were two winners: Oleg Petukhov and Artem Ponomarev. Meet me.

Petukhov Oleg and his " Good fairy tale» .

On one distant uninhabited island lived a strange little kind dragon named Drakosha.
The island was very far from big land, so no one came to visit him, flew in or sailed. Drakosha was very sad and lonely. He did not know what friends and comrades were. He didn't have holidays. He did not know that once a year there is such a fun holiday as New Year. He had never seen snow, a Christmas tree, Father Frost and Snow Maiden.

And then one day, on one of his lonely days, when Drakosha was walking along the seashore, in the distance he saw a ship that was heading precisely to his island. “Who could it be?” - thought Drakosha. He was very happy: “Soon I won’t be alone, hurray!”
The ship sailed closer and closer, and Drakosha saw a black flag on its mast. He didn't like it very much. He decided to hide in the thicket of the forest and watch. When the ship sailed to the shore, Drakosha saw that very scary, evil men were descending from it and leading a tied up old grandfather with a white beard and a very beautiful girl in a wonderful blue hat and fur coat. One of the most formidable little men said: “Let’s leave them here, soon it will be hot and the Snow Maiden will melt, and let the grandfather sit and grieve. And we’ll take all the gifts and surprises to our island and we’ll eat sweets and play games all year long. interesting toys, which they prepared for the guys. And let the children sit and wait for the holiday for a long, long time.” And they led their captives into the forest.
“It’s terrible,” thought Drakosha, “how such beautiful girl may melt." He felt sorry for the old grandfather and those guys who were sitting and waiting for gifts. And he decided to free the girl and the old grandfather.

Drakosha was kind, but he really did not like evil and unjust people. And once upon a time, his grandfather Drakon Drakonych taught him several magical deeds. He could temporarily transform living beings into dry trees, stones, and stumps.
The angry Drakosha rushed into the forest. At first he decided to come to an amicable agreement with the little men. “Please let the poor old man and girl go!” - Drakosha shouted to them. But in response they only laughed at him. “Who are you to tell us? - they squeaked. “We’ll connect you now.” And the evil men rushed at Drakosha. But Drakosha was very clever and brave. He released fire from his mouth and the first three men quickly turned into round stones. The little men froze for a few seconds, but immediately rushed at Drakosha again. But he was not at a loss and turned several more of them into dry trees. There are only four villains left. They got scared and decided to run to the ship.
“No, you won’t leave,” said Drakosha, and four dry stumps appeared on the road. He ran up to the grandfather and the girl and untied them.

Thank you very much, kind Drakosha! - the grandfather and the girl told him. - You saved us and many, many children who are now waiting for us, waiting for gifts, waiting for the New Year! After all, if we don’t come, the holiday will not come.
- What is New Year? – Drakosha asked.
-You don’t know what New Year is? – the girl was surprised. - My name is Snegurochka, and this is my grandfather - Grandfather Frost. We invite you to our holiday!
Drakosha was very happy. He had never been to a holiday before in his life.
- Then quickly run to the ship, because soon my magical action will end and the evil little men will come to life.
And all three rushed to the ship.

After several days of sailing, the ship sailed to land. But it was all white and shone with multi-colored lights.
- What it is? – Drakosha asked the Snow Maiden.
“It’s snow,” said the girl. - You're so funny.
They got into the sleigh and rushed through forests and fields covered with snow. There is very little left until the start of the new year.
"How beautiful!" - thought Drakosha. And then a huge house appeared in front of Drakosha. There were many, many guys there. But as soon as the guys saw Father Frost and the Snow Maiden on the threshold, they shouted joyfully and clapped their hands.
- Happy New Year, dear guys, with new happiness! - said Grandfather Frost. - We are very glad to see you. We were in a hurry, but on the way we met evil robbers who did not want the New Year to come. But here's ours new friend Dragon saved us and our holiday. Therefore, our New Year will be the year of the good Dragon!
- Hurray! - the guys shouted.
“Hurray,” Drakosha shouted.
And the holiday began! He was very happy, because now he is not alone - he has a lot of kind and good friends!

And Ponomarev Artem with his fairy tale "Factory of Santa Claus".

Once upon a time there lived a boy, Petya. One day at school he heard from high school students that there is no such thing as Santa Claus. He became very sad and when he came home, he decided to make a strange wish. If it doesn’t come true, it means the older guys are telling the truth. If it comes true, it’s all just fiction. And his desire was this: to visit the magic factory of Santa Claus.

IN New Year's Eve When he had already forgotten about his desire, the boy woke up from the cold. Opening his eyes, he saw that all the windows in his room were open. Sitting down on the bed, Petya looked through the open window at the magical Troll, who was sitting on a shining snow sleigh and, as it turned out, was waiting for the boy. And suddenly the Troll says to him: “Well, you are a sleepyhead. Stop sitting, otherwise someone will see me. Hurry up! There are still two of the same unbelieving guys waiting for us.” The boy quickly jumped out of bed and miraculously found himself in the sleigh. A few seconds later, two more guys were sitting next to him: Styopa and his sister Olya.
-Where are we going? - Olya whispered quietly.
- You wanted to visit Santa Claus’s magical factory! - Troll answered laughing.
Nothing was visible. Everything is white and white. In the icy white desert there stood an icy house. Made of icicles, all sparkling. Santa Claus was waiting for the guys there!

The sleigh slowly went down. But Petya, Styopa and Olya could not move. They couldn't believe their eyes. It was actually Santa Claus's magical factory. The children entered the factory and were amazed. Toys sparkled all around, candies, cookies and confetti rained down. A streamer flew around the factory and slowly fell into gift bags. Snowflakes were falling from the ceiling. And cheerful gnomes in smart collars and white gloves carefully packed gifts. Various magical toys were created in the toy workshop.
- Well, guys, do you like my factory? - the children heard the voice of Santa Claus and turned around.
- Certainly! This is just a miracle! - the guys shouted.
- I’ll tell you a secret: I only come to those who believe in me.
And suddenly, each of the guys unexpectedly woke up in their bed, and under the tree they found a red bag, showered with confetti and streamers.
The fairy tale is a lie, but there is a hint in it, good fellows lesson. If you believe, it works out and then everything comes true!

There lived a boy Dima in Krasnoyarsk. He was seven years old. On New Year's Eve, Dima and his parents began to prepare for the long-awaited holiday. We invited guests, decorated the house, and cut salads. And now Dima approaches his mother:
- Mom, are we going to celebrate the New Year without a tree?
- Oh, exactly. We didn't buy a Christmas tree!
They got ready and went with dad to shopping mall behind the tree. Of course, there were not only Christmas trees, but also firecrackers, Christmas decorations and stars. But most of all Dima liked the garlands. He went to them. They shimmered: now red, now yellow, now green, now blue. Dima really wanted to dress up with one of the garlands Christmas tree. He went to his parents and wanted to tell him about it, but they were no longer there. Dima was horrified. He started running all over the store, but they were nowhere to be found. A passerby approached Dima:
- What happened, boy?
- My parents are missing!
- How did you disappear?
- Well, we came here to get a Christmas tree. I went to the garlands, and when I returned, they were no longer there.
- Do you remember your address?
- No, I’m only seven years old!
- Well then, stay here and don’t go anywhere, and I’ll come soon and everything will be fine.

She left. But for some reason the boy became scared. He imagined some shadows. Then Dima became even more frightened. He started running around the entire shopping center and asking everyone: “Have you seen my parents?” But everyone just looked at him very strangely and passed by.
Then Dima ran out into the street and began to remember the way home.
Everything around was unfamiliar. Then Dima sat down in the snow and tears flowed from his eyes. “I would give anything to go home,” he muttered, sobbing.

And suddenly he saw the stars light up in the sky. He stopped crying and looked at them. Then he started counting them. There were seven of them. "Wow, I've never seen anything like this bright stars“, thought Dima.
They burned so intensely that the boy's eyes hurt. He closed his eyes. Then the light went out. Dima opened his eyes. Strange, but he no longer found himself in the snow in an unfamiliar place, but in front of his house. “This is my house!?” - the boy was surprised.
Dima ran into his apartment.
- Mommy, daddy!!!
- Dimochka, darling! - Mom and Dad rushed to him.

But he was unable to come to dinner, and he showed up at the house on chicken legs only in the evening. There was a stump right next to Baba Yaga's house. Santa Claus accidentally touched it with his staff, the stump swayed, shook himself off and mumbled:

— For some reason or other?

“Baba Yaga herself called,” answered Santa Claus.

“Come in,” the stump said peacefully.

Baba Yaga treated Santa Claus to bagels, and then said:

- In the Farthest, Farthest Forest, you, Red Nose Frost, have never been seen. But there were no Christmas trees there; Only sorcerer oaks grow there. Get ready, take me there New Year tree and gifts for the inhabitants of the forest.

- How will I go there? – asked Santa Claus. “My horses don’t even know the way there.”

“So be it, let’s go together in my mortar,” said Baba Yaga.

“But it will be too small for both of us,” said Santa Claus.

“Don’t worry about it,” said Baba Yaga.

- Why have you become so kind? – Santa Claus doubted.

- So, for once, you gave me a gift today - you gave me a new broom and repaired the stove, otherwise I, the old one, began to freeze completely.

And the next morning they decided to fly to the Far, Far Forest. Santa Claus put on a warm fur coat, took gifts and a New Year tree. But Baba Yaga found fur mittens and put on woolen socks, but she didn’t take any gifts, because Baba-Hedgehogs don’t give any gifts, and she even waved a broom.

Baba Yaga tapped her mortar with a broom, it immediately increased in size, Santa Claus and Baba Yaga sat in the mortar and flew away.

Whether it took a long time or a short time, they flew to the Far-Far Forest. When the inhabitants of the forest saw Baba Yaga flying, they hid in all directions.

Father Frost and Baba Yaga landed and gathered to congratulate the inhabitants of the Far, Far Forest on the New Year, but no one was there. They were screaming and screaming, but there was no one there. What to do? Whom should we congratulate?

And a small titmouse joined them in flight. When Father Frost and Baba Yaga were getting ready for the journey, she slipped into the pocket of Father Frost's fur coat, and sat there the entire way.

When Santa Claus and Baba Yaga began to look for animals and birds, she got out of her pocket and said:

- Don’t worry, I’ll bring animals and birds to you now.

And she flew off to look for the local titmice. I found them and told them that Father Frost and Baba Yaga had arrived to wish everyone a Happy New Year and give them gifts. And they brought something else.

It turned out Christmas tree, which was seen by the inhabitants of the most distant, distant forest, who came running to the Silver Glade. They were invited by numerous tits.

Residents of the most distant, distant forest gasped when they looked at the beautiful Christmas tree with toys, lanterns and lights. Santa Claus gave gifts to everyone, and Baba Yaga told New Year's tale. The little titmouse was asking riddles.

And when Santa Claus's clock struck twelve times, everyone shouted in unison:

- Happy New Year! Hooray!

And they danced together in circles. And then little sparrow said that he was tired and wanted to sleep. The fox cubs, wolf cubs, and squirrels also wanted to sleep.

Well! Sleep is also a small holiday. A holiday of happy events and fabulous transformations. Children grow up in their sleep. This is great!

Grow up too, my friend. Gain strength and health. Santa Claus asked me to tell you that everything will be fine with you!

"Gifts of the Magi".

14 minutes

Readers know this story almost by heart, but still remember it on Christmas Eve year after year. The story of two “stupid children” who sacrificed the most expensive things for each other, inspires us already more than a century. Its moral is this: no matter how poor you are, love makes you both rich and happy.

"New Year's holiday of father and little daughter."

11 minutes

A very short and bright story about a man who spent best years life for some labor unknown to the reader and who did not notice how his daughter grew up.

IN " New Year's holiday..." one feels the coldness and hopelessness that the author himself experienced in an unheated St. Petersburg room in the terrible year 1922, but there is also that warmth that only close people can give. In the case of Green's hero, this is his daughter, Tavinia Drap, and in the case of the writer himself, his wife Nina Mironova.

"Angel".

25 minutes

Sasha is a thirteen-year-old teenager from a poor family, eccentric, embittered, accustomed to enduring beatings and insults. On Christmas Eve, he is invited to a Christmas party in a rich house, where the boy is surrounded by the clean and happy children of the owners. In addition to this, he sees his father's first love. The woman he still remembers.

But on Christmas, as we remember, miracles happen, and Sasha’s heart, which was still squeezed by an iron vice, melts when he looks at the toy angel. In an instant, his usual rudeness, hostility and callousness disappear.

"Christmas tree". Tove Jansson

15 minutes

A charming story about the unknown to science, but so beloved Moomintrolls. This time Tove Jansson described how a family familiar to readers celebrated Christmas. Not knowing what it is or how it is celebrated, the Moomin family managed to arrange a real holiday with a Christmas tree and gifts for whips (even more mysterious animals).

The story, of course, is for children, but adults will also enjoy re-reading it on New Year’s Eve.

"Anniversary". Narine Abgaryan

20 minutes

A realistic story, devoid of even a hint of magic, nevertheless leads to the most joyful New Year's thoughts. "Anniversary" is a story of friendship, old and new, breaking with an unpleasant past and hoping to fulfill all the promises made with the advent of the New Year.

"Not just for Christmas."

30 minutes

A fly in the ointment in our ointment: satirical story about how Christmas suddenly became a daily unbearable torture. At the same time, the whole essence of the holiday, its religious and moral overtones, came to naught because of people’s love for “tinsel.” Masterpiece from the laureate Nobel Prize based on the literature of Heinrich Böll.
