A very cute little movie to watch. Its no masterpiece and is under an hour long. But for me as a child and now a bit older its still a very neat little film about Christmas. Its not trying to be something that its not, just being a short movie about a poor family trying to get through Christmas. While the kids are able to just enjoy Christmas showing the true nature of the holiday through spending time with family, the father wants them to have at least just one present. By this, he sells the family horse to pay for a Christmas present so they can have a good Christmas. Luckily, the family are able to wish the horse back with a Christmas wish and the father learns that Christmas is not about presents but family. I feel this movie deserves better, its nothing but a simple short story and succeeds in this greatly.
