圣诞老人也收到了礼物。平安夜，世界上所有的孩子都在做同一件事情把一只或长或短或红或绿或新或旧的圣诞袜，挂在床头。然后爬上床，闭上眼，等圣诞老人趁他们睡熟了的时候溜进来，把礼物放进袜子里。小猪说，年年都往床头放袜子，真没劲啊。难怪每年圣诞老人都只给大家差不多的礼物。不是玩具汽车就是画册，再不呢，一定是罐味道怪怪的糖果。夜深了。到处静悄悄的，听得到雪花飘落的声音。圣诞老人扛着一大袋子礼物，尽量轻手轻脚地进出孩子们的房间，在床头的袜子里放下一件又一件礼物。哗！多漂亮的圣诞帽！红红的帽子顶上结着绒绒的小球，下边镶着毛毛的白边，整顶帽子上还洒着银粉，在光线并不充足的房间里，一闪，一闪。圣诞老人忍不住伸了手，摘下自己头上戴了好多年旧了薄了的帽子，戴上这顶漂亮的新帽子。圣诞老人戴着新帽子，觉得真激动，觉得好幸福。哎呀呀，幸福得都想掉眼泪了。圣诞老人把帽檐拉下来，再拉下来，遮了脸，躲在帽子后边，唏哩哗啦哭了个痛快。
