The legend of St. Nicholas is a cruel one, even if it has a happy ending. At harvest time, three poor little children go to the fields to pick up the few ears of corn that the harvesters have forgotten; alas, they get lost, night falls. They are afraid, they are cold. Finally, they see a light in the distance. Full of hope, they run towards it... Throughout the centuries, this legend keeps telling children that some adults are evil.

The text is in French and English.
