When I was a child, I used to believe that Baltasar, the black wise man, only gave bad gifts to bad children. My father knew that, and one day, he dressed up in a costume of Baltasar, and said to me that if I wasn’t a good boy and had good marks, he would give me bad gifts. Since that day, I always behave well.
