"Oh what a busy,busy time
of year. Christmas is
coming,and I have so many
things to do,"said
Christopher to Larry,Billy ←本人やお友達等の名前
and Joe,who had come to
piay."I have gifts to make
and cookies to bake,but
that's not all. We'll get a tall
tree,hang stockings three,
four,or maybe more."
Later,Christopher,Larry,
Billy and Joe were talking
about Santa Claus.They
Could picture Santa's Jolly,
round face with his big smile
that was nearly hidden by his
long,white,bushy beard.
"I have a great idea,"said
Christopher."Let's get our
crayons and pencils and each
make a list and call it"My
Christmas Wish."This list
will be special. We'll pretend
we can go to the North Pole
and see how Santa and Mrs.
Claus get ready for
Christmas."
All of the elves work so
hard in Santa's toy shop,that
Mrs.Claus bakes them lots
of cookies for snacks.Some
have red icing,some
chocolate,and some green.
"Ummm,I really like
cookies,"said Christophor,"I
wish I could be there to share
some with the elves."
Running here,running
there...Santa's elves are very
busy.
"I wish I could be there to
help feed the reindeer and
polish all the brass bells,"
said Billy. ←One of friendに記入した人の名前
Christopher thought of
another wish."I wish Santa
chould bring Rudolph to
Atlanta.It would make the
↑ホームタウン
whole town happy."
"I just thougt of a bigger
wish,"said Christopher."I
wish Santa Claus would
come wish ALL his reindeer
and take me for a ride.Up,
up,and away we would fly by,I
might even shake a bell or
two myself."
"Well,I have a bigger,
bigger,BIGGER wish,"cried
Billy."I can't write it down,
it is so BIG.I wish all the
children in Atlanta,could
take turns flying around with
Santa claus.I can just see
the BIG smiles."
Christopher,Larry,Billy
and Joe were enjoying this
pretend game very much.
They started wishing they
could go to see where Santa
and Mrs.Claus lived.They
had been told that the walk
way to the front door was
lined with candy canes!
All of a sudden,they
found themselves sitting at
Santa's table.Santa was
reading through his very long
list of names of children who
had been very good.
Christopher,Larry,Billy and
Joe hoped their names were
on the list.
"Welcome to our home
Christopher.Would you and
your friends like some
cookies,"asked Mrs.Claus.
"Santa and I will sing you
some Christmas songs.How
about Silent Night,or Jingle
Bells? Yes,Jingle Bells,"
and they began to sing.
The music could be heard
in the workshop where the
elves wer working very
hard. One elf was painting
some finishing touches on
the roof of a doll house."I
wonder if one of the elves
made the model airplane,"
said Christopher, "I would
like to have that as a gift for
myself."
Christopher saw an elf
pick up a colorful book
telling about the real
meaning of Christmas. He
thought it seemed like a good
idea to add the book to his
Wish list.
"This has been a very
exciting adventure to visit
Santa and Mrs.Claus and to
see how hard all the elves
work to get ready for
Christmas,"said Christophor.
As Christopher,Larry,
Billy and Joe watched Santa
load his sleigh,they realized
that it was time to say
good-bye."Before we go,"
said Christopher,"we have
just one last wish....
"Peace on Earth and Good Will
to all the Children of the World."
