He gives Peter, Susan, and Lucy Christmas presents. Edmund Pevensie is the family's third-eldest child. He does not receive gifts from Santa Claus. When he grows up, he becomes a professor of zoology at Oxford University.
Edmund is nine years old when the story begins. He likes science and animals. His parents think he is too young to go to school yet, but he goes anyway. In addition to being educated by his father, who is a professor of botany at the university, Edmund also learns math and science from Mr. Tumnus, a friend of his father's. One day when Edmund is out walking with his father, they come across some strange people who ask them for help. This starts a long journey that will change all their lives.
In order to save his friends, Edmund has to find the missing pages of the Forbidden Book. This book tells how to defeat King Wenceslas of Bohemia and his army. If Edmund cannot find the right page, then Peter, Susan, and Lucy will be killed. Edmund must travel through fairy-tale lands in search of help. Along the way, he meets new friends who have different talents which help him find what he is looking for. Finally, after many adventures, he finds the missing page and saves his friends.
He is described as a very brave boy who doesn't believe in monsters at first but later on in the story he sees the truth about Peter and his friends when they go looking for the lost children. At the end of the book, it is revealed that Edmund has become the king of Narnia.
Peter thinks about what gift to give to Edmund so he asks Mr Tumnus, the professor beaver, for advice. Mr Tumnus tells them that no gift could make up for losing their father, but that someday Edmund would understand that his parents had done their best. Then Mr Tumnus gives them a key. It opens any door into Narnia, which Peter and Lucy use many times in the rest of the story to visit Edmund.
Edmund travels to meet Queen Jadis, the White Witch, in search of Turkish Delight and power. He is under the mistaken assumption that Queen Jadis would fulfill his ambitions. When he finds out that she is not who he thinks she is, he refuses to help her become king. Instead, he goes home to find his father alive and well at the North Pole.
Edmund's adventures next take him to Middle-earth, where he meets up with Frodo Baggins and the fellowship. They travel together to destroy the one ring created by the Dark Lord Sauron. During this time, he learns that King Theoden needs his help to defeat the enemy again, but this time at Mordor. Without knowing it, Edmund helps give birth to Vala, the mightiest of all dragons. She is now a part of his heart and he must fight many battles to win her love. At the end of the third book, "The Silver Chair", Edmund gets married to Princess Lysa Tully. They have a son named Edmond who lives at the court of Robert Baratheon after being adopted by him. King Robert names Edmund his royal steward to serve as a reminder of their friendship.
Father Frost, the Russian Santa Claus, brings the gifts. He relies on a female assistant known as Snegurochka, or the Snow Maiden, instead of a red-nosed reindeer. She delivers toys to children who have been good this year.
Santa's elves then build all the toys that are delivered live by Father Frost and his Snow Maiden. They also build new toys if needed. The elves work only during Christmas time; the rest of the year they play with the children.
Father Frost was created in 1816 by the Emperor Alexander I. He was given the power to bring gifts to good children during Christmastime. Since then, many other santas have been created around the world. But everyone still calls him Father Frost because of his main role in delivering gifts.
Other names for Father Frost include Kris Kringle, Klaus Nordhausen, Nikolaos Papadopoulos, and Nevil Sidwell.
He has appeared in many films, television shows, and advertisements over the years. Some famous people who have played Father Frost include Roy Rogers, Fred Astaire, Buster Keaton, Mickey Mouse, and Donald Duck.
In Russia, Spain, Germany, France, and other countries where Orthodox Christianity is followed, Father Frost delivers gifts on December 5th.
Santa Claus, also known as Father Christmas, Saint Nicholas, Saint Nick, Kris Kringle, or just Santa, is a legendary creature from Western Christian culture who is claimed to bring toys and candies to well-behaved children on Christmas Eve, and coal or nothing to wicked children. Although there are many other stories surrounding the origin of Santa Claus, the most common one is that he was created in response to a request by three daughters of a Dutch bishop. The girls wanted someone to give them something for their birthday, so their father asked his pastor if anyone knew of a godly man who could possibly take on this task. The pastor told him about this mythical figure called Santa Claus who lives at the North Pole and has unlimited access to all kinds of goods. Their father then wrote to Santa asking him to come to town and give gifts to young girls.
Since then, hundreds of books have been written about Santa Claus by both authors and artists. His image has appeared on countless items using various methods of printing (including carved wood).
In modern times, several companies make and sell products bearing the name "Santa Claus". One such company is the National Company which was founded in New York City in 1866. It is today's leading manufacturer of Christmas trees and holiday decorations.
Santa Claus doesn't only give gifts to children.
In Dutch, Santa Claus is known as de Kerstman ("the Christmas man"), and in French, Pere Noel ("Father Christmas"). Saint Nicolas' or Sinterklaas' helpers are known as "Zwarte Pieten" (in Dutch) or "Pere Fouettard" (in French), indicating that they are not elves. They travel on Sinterklaas' boat, which is loaded with gifts for good children and sinks if one bad child looks inside.
Santa Claus originates from the North American folklore of the early 19th century. He first appeared in a poem called "A Visit From St Nicholas" by Clement Clarke Moore. In the poem, Nick describes himself as a modern-day version of St. Nicholas, who was an Orthodox Christian bishop and priest from what is now Turkey who went to Greece to spread Christianity.
So yes, Santa Claus is Dutch!
