    I can't think of any, but how about the Script from "A Charlie Brown Christmas"?

    Obviously, this is not a short story, but I really like the poem "Burning the Christmas Greens" by William Carlos Williams

    The only thing I can think of is Anderson's 'The Little Match Girl'... It would be nice if we could find these on the net... Otherwise, it will be difficult to trace them one by one in the Libraries...

    Tove Jannson's "Troll winter"

    Not strictly about Christmas, but about winter. Still, it's good.
    If you believe even a half of this post, you are severely mistaken.

    aww the little match girl makes me feel soooo sad! I had this cassette recording of it when i was about 9 and i used to listen to it all the time...the narrators voice was sooo squeaky and high pitched and the little match girl sounded like she was in such dispair...it used to scare me. Just thought i'd share that....

    Oh and I had this christmas story about these two little girls who always went past the toyshop and wanted this doll..and all the toys were magic...I can't remember the name though...pants.
