The Christmas Gift

By: Hyatt, Andrea

Santa rang the Christmas bell, and all the elves stopped and stared. What was Santa's big announcement? "Who will go into the woods and collect from each animal a Christmas gift for Ruby, the new baby reindeer?" None of the elves wanted to leave the warmth and coziness of Santa's workshop... except one. "I'll go " exclaimed Elliot. Elliot must overcome his fear of dark caves, heights, and small, tight places, but he is determined to collect a gift from each animal and meet Santa at the Reindeer Barn by noon with the gifts. Elliot consults his map. His first stop is Brutus the Bear's cave. Elliot despises dark caves, but he knows Santa is counting on him. To Elliot's dismay, Brutus refuses to part with his sweet honey. Surely, Roxie the Rabbit, Sammy the Squirrel, and Rosie the Raccoon will be charitable... but what if they're not? What will Elliot do? After all, Santa is counting on him, and Elliot's persistence will not allow him to disappoint Santa. This heartwarming story will take you on an unforgettable Christmas adventure and remind you that the true spirit of Christmas dwells in a generous heart.
