I'm already reading this:

It is s a collection of stories that are Xmas-related of happened in X-mas. Most of them are not intttended for children. For example, the OHenry stories mention murder attempts. The tale "El Rey Baltasar" is about a moral issue that has no solution.
Great stories that fall apart from the Childish Xmas "sweetness" :D
