One night Santa Claus was reading his letters when he heard a knock on the door. It was an Elf. “There’re two days until Christmas and we’ve finished all the presents!” He shouted happily. “Well good for you,” Santa said. “I’ll look later, but I’m going to finish reading these letters first.” “Okay” said the little Elf.
He walked to the door and shut it behind him. When Santa had finished his letters, he opened the door and looked at all the presents. “Wow!” he said. “Look at all these presents!” “That’s what I told you” said the Elf laughing. But Santa checked the letters, one more time. “We missed a child” he shouted, ‘’and there are only 2 more minutes until Christmas.” But they made it just in time.
