A fair9 tale Christmas
Santa
tries
to be
nice to
Grinch
Once upon a time a
week before Christmas,
Santa was hard at work.
He was thinking about
having a supper on
Christmas Eve for all.his
friends and the Grinch.
Even though the Grinch
wasn't his friend he said
he might as well be nice
to him.
"Bernard, Bernard
where are you?" Santa
screamed. "Down here
sir!" "Bernard would you
write out invitations to all
the people on this here
list?" "Sure Santa." Santa
told Bernard to go mail
all the letters to all the
people on the list after he
was done writing them.
So bernard went and
started to write all the
letters. As he was writing
he saw the Grinches
name at the bottom of the
list so he though he was
just being nice to
everyone in Goo Ville.
Bernard hopped on his.
MXZ 750 and went to the
post office to mail all of
the invitations for the big
supper. All the elves were
busy working that they
forgot about the big
supper for all the people.
They had so many elves
and they worked so hard
that they got it done
before bed time at 9:00.
They were all exhausted
that they fell right asleep.
Santa fell asleep pretty
fast too. But that night
the Grinch went out and
got his mail. He was
looking through it,
"Garbage, • garbage,
garbage!" "I heard about
Santa's party and I
thought I would get
invited!" As he was
talking to himself his dog
entered with a piece of
paper in his mouth.
"Bark, bark!" "Be quiet
dog!" "Since they didn't "
invite me they will pay!"
"Ha. ha, ha, ha!" the
Grinch said to himself.
So he hopped on his
Mach Z that he stole
from the Green Giant last
winter and headed down
to Santa's work shop. He
loaded all the toys and all
the food on to the sleigh
that he pulled behind his
Mach Z. As he started up
his snowmobile he said,
"I will show them to
invite me next time they
have a party!" As he
pulled away his hat fell
off and the wind took it
through the window into
the hall of Santa's house.
"Merry Christmas
indeed! he said scooting
up the hill back to his
cave. In the morning the
elves woke up and ran
into the living room to
see nothing. So they ran
into the kitchen also to
sec nothing. The elves
woke Santa up and as
they went to show Santa
they saw a hat as they
looked inside they saw a
tag that said Property of
The Grinch. They all
shouted "The Grinch!"
"Why would the Grinch
steal all of our stuff?" "I
sent him an invitation
right?" "Ya!" Bernard
yelled. So everyone got
dressed and hopped on
their MXZs and scooted
up to the Grinches' place
to get their stuff back.
Bang, bang, bang. "Who
is it?" "Give us our stuff
back!? "Why didn't you
invite me?" "Yes we
did!" The Grinch thought
back and started to dig.
"Oh I messed up!" So the
Grinch said sorry and
they had a big supper.

a girl. Her parents had died
in a car accident. She was
sent to live with her uncle.
Her uncle's name was John.
He was always away.
The girl's name was
Jensen. She had brown hair,
blue eyes and was very,very
quiet. Jensen was always
bored. But when it came to
Christmas her uncle would
bring a Christmas tree. But
her uncle was very short, so
it was hard for him to bring
the Christmas tree into the
house.
One year while she was
decorating the Christmas
tree, Jensen noticed
something that she had never
noticed before. There was a
crooked picture and a piece
of string behind it. Jensen
took the picture off the wall
and looked at the string. She
noticed the string was
coming out of a hole. Jensen
looked in the hole there were
many lights. Jensen pulled

presents
Once upon a time there
was a poor boy. He lived
with his grandmother, in a
shock. On Christmas Eve he
wished that Santa would
come to his shack. At night
he went to sleep. Santa was
coming to his shack. Santa
came into the shack. The
little boys name was Jesse.
At 12:00 a.m. he heard a
bell. He jumped out of his
bed. He saw Santa. Santa
said, "ho, ho, ho. Merry
Christmas."
Jesse said "Santa, this
night is when Jesus Christ
was born and you don't need
to give me any presents. I
just wanted to shake your
hand. I am fine with no toys.
I just want to say I love you
to Jesus."
Jesse saw something on the
top of the old Christmas tree.
It looked like Jesus.` The
figure talked and said, "I am
Jesus and I love you too."
Jesse knew that Christmas
isn't all about presents. It is
about love and sharing.
