The year the elves went on strike By Claire Van Doornik Grade 3 St. James Once upon a time, not too long ago, Santa's elves worked as long as usual. Santa always checked on them - hearing the pound of the hammers, pound! Pound! The clanking of the wrench ting! ting! and the other sounds in a workshop. Just when Santa closed the door an elf named Bobby stood on the tallest thing he could reach and said, "Everyone, Santa just wants us to be his slaves! He just wants us to make the toys because he doesn't want to. So if you agree with me put your hand up please." All the elves put their hands up except for one little elf named Susie. She said "But I want to work for Santa." All the other elves gasped. All of a sudden the door creaked. Bobby yelled, "Everyone be lazy so we don't work!" Every elf was lazy except for Susie. She keeped on working on the doll she was working on before. Santa was entering saying "No, Mrs. Claus I do not want a cookie right now." Then he saw Susie working and the rest lazy. Santa said to Susie "Why Susie, why don't you come with me to have a cookie or two?" "Sure" said Susie "I'd love to." All the other elves were mad. They wanted cookies too. So they went back to work. Soon all the presents were wrapped and put in Santa's sleigh. Santa was off. When they were on a roof top, Rudolph said to Dasher, "Why didn't Santa go down the chimney?" Dasher answered, "Because the door was easier." All the other reindeer laughed. THE SICK REINDEER RUDOLPH By Josh Laycox Grade 3 St. James One Christmas there was a very sick reindeer named Rudolph. Santa was very worried. He said, "Oh no!" What am I going to do now? How can I deliver toys when my head reindeer Rudolph is sick? He sat down and wondered what to do. He quickly jumped off his chair. He said, "I know what to do! I will give Rudolph some medicine." He got the medicine and he gave Rudolph some of it. Santa asked Rudolph a question. He asked, "Are you feeling better yet Rudolph?" Rudolph shook his head yes! "Now" said Santa, "Are you ready to fly yet Rudolph?" Rudolph shook his head yes! Santa said "Come Rudolph now let's deliver toys! Then he met a friend, a kid. The kid asked if he could go. Santa said "Yes!" The elf asked if he could come too and Santa said yes! So they all delivered all the toys to good little boys and girls in the world and lived happily ever after. w►.�- 73 t° • I `b Having customers like you fills us up ... with • cheer!
