I have a story for you. The Christmas Mouse It was the evening of Christmas and there was a hole in Santa’s bag. Pinky the mouse fell out and landed in a strange place called Kitchener. He was in K-Mart. It was big. He got lost. Then Santa wondered where Pinky was. So he sent most of his hard working elves to go find him. One elf went in K- Mart and found him over by the toys. Then, he went over to get him and all of the elves were already there. All of the elves cheered. So did Santa. From Melissa Grade 3, Brussels P.S. DEAR SANTA, I have a story for you. The Hungry Mice Once upon a time, there were five mice. Their names were Adam, Chris J., Alyssa, Cory and Lauren. There was a janitor and her name was Abi. One time the five mice were looking for food at the school. They couldn't find any food. They looked everywhere. They still couldn't find any food. It was Christmas Eve. Santa came. The mice said "Can we have something to eat?" Santa said "Yes". And they lived happily ever after. From Adam Corbett Grade 3, Brussels P.S. DEAR SANTA, I made a story for you. I hope you like it.

It was Christmas night and everyone was sound asleep. It was very silent because it was Christmas night. It was a lovely day in December on Christmas day because Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus and Princess and the elves and Jingle Bells, the head elf, are opening their gifts. Little Mouse opened his gift. It was a whole bunch of cheese! It was a happy Christmas day. Ashley Thornton Grade 3, Brussels P.S.

All the kids in her class were busy making a gingerbread house with their chemistry teacher. Denise was the smart one of the class. It was her idea to make the gingerbread house. Their teacher, Mr. Bell, said "It's time to go out and play. Come back after recess." While they were out, their lab mouse, Jinglebells, decided to try the gingerbread house. It was so good, he ate the whole thing! When the kids saw what happened, they were mad at him. They told Mr. Bell and he had an idea. He said, "Why don't you make a new gingerbread house?" So, Jinglebells did help. Lauren got jellybeans and put them on. Christopher got licorice and put it on. Adam got gumdrops and put them on. Marty got icing and put it on. Alyssa got chocolate chips and put them on. Jinglebells found sprinkles and sprinkled them on and Denise and Mr. Bell baked the Christmas goodies. That Christmas, Ms Frizzle, Jinglebells and the whole class had a Merry Christmas. From Alyssa Gtfwing Grade 3, Brussels P.S. Missy and Mike went to bed, Santa I came to Amanda's and Mike's house.
