"Oh what a busy, busy time of year. Chrostmas is coming, and I have so mamy things to do," said Mihiro to Tak, Sakae and Ken, Who had come to play. "I have gifts to make and cooking and cookies to bake, but that's not all. We'll get a tall. tree, hang stocking three, four, or maybe more"

Later, Mihiro and Tak, Sakae and Ken were talking about Santa Claus. They could picture Santa's jolly, round face with his big smile that was nearly hidden by his long white, bushy beard.

"It have a great a idea," said Mihiro. "Let's get our crayons and pencils and earch make a list and call it "My Christmas Wish." This list will be special. We'll pretend we can go to the North Pole and see how Santa and Mrs. Ciaus get ready for Christmas."

All of the elves work so hand in hand in Santa's toy shop, that Mrs. Claus bakes them lots of cookies for snacks. Some have red icing, some chocolate, and green. "Ummm,I likecookies," said Mihiro, "I wish Icould be there to share some with the elves."

Running here, running there...Santa's elves are very busy. "I wish I could be there to help heed the reindeer and polish all the bress bells, said Tak, Sakae and Ken.

MIhiro thought of another wish. "I wish Santa could bring Rudolph to Niigata. It would make the whole town happy."

"I just thought of a bigger wish," said Mihiro. "I wish Santa Claus would come with ALL his reindeer and take me for a ride. Up ,up, and away we would fly. I would wear a green suit to match the color of Santa's green sleigh. As I fil by, I might even shake a ball or two myself."

"Well, I have a bigger, bigger, BIGGER wish," cried Tak, Sakae and Ken. "I can't write it down, it is so BIG. I wish all the children in Niigata, could turns Flying around with Santa Claus. I can just see the BIG smiles."

Mihiro and Tak, Sakae and Ken were enjoying this pretend game every much. They started wishing they could go to see where Santa and Mrs. Claus lived. They started wishing they could go to see where Santa and Mrs. Claus lived. They had been told that the walk way to the front door was lined candy canes!

All of sudden, they found themselves sitting at Santa's table. Santa was reading through his very long list of names of children who had been very good . Mihiro and Tak, Sakae and Ken hoped their names were on the list.

"Welcome to our home Mihiro. Would you and your friend like some cookies," asked Mrs. Claus. "Santa and I will sing you some Christmas songs. How about Silent Night, or Jingle. Bells? Yes, Jingles Bells," and they began to sing.

The music could be heard in the workshop where the working very hard. One elf was painting some finishing touches on the roof of a door house. "I wonder if one of the elves made that little doll," said Mihiro, "I would like to have that as a gift for myself."

Mihiro saw an elf pick up a colorful telling about the real meaning of Christmas. She thought it seemed like a good idea to add the book to her Wish list.

"This has been a very exciting to adventure to visit Santa and Mrs.Clous and to see how all the elves work to get ready for Christmas," said Mihiro.

As Mihiro and Tak, Sakae and Ken watched Santa load sleigh, they relized that it was time to say good-bye. "Befor we go," said Mihiro, "we have just one last wish....
