Dear Santa Claus,
Well, good old friend, I hope you will be good to everybody. I can think of many things I want, but I want somebody else to get something too. Well, Santa, I want a little doll, some apples, oranges and candy, and a story book of some fairy tales. Well, Santa you better look, because we might have a fire when you come down the chimney and you will get burned or get some smut on your clothes. Well, I will have to go to bed. So be a good old man. Your friend, Annie Holder
