Hello folks.
My name is Davy Crockett, and we have a great show for you today.
And the name of the story is The Night of Christmas.
Our story begins with Tommy.
He's going to sleep on the night before Christmas.
He doesn't know that a certain burglar has been working all day to ruin Christmas for everybody.
In case you didn't know it, Santa's got a motor for his sled.
And the burglar tried to ruin Christmas by taking out the motor from his sled.
Along came Santa, marching joyfully down the road.
He discovered the motor was missing.
And he got very mad and called a taxi.
Taxi came right away and Santa put the presents in the trunk.
The taxi drove off with Santa and the presents.
They stopped at a stop sign, and the burglar who was watching went to the taxi and snatched the presents.
The taxi drove off, but the presents were gone.
The burglar took all the presents to his hideout.
After 15 minutes, he had pity on the people who didn't have any presents.
He said, oh, what terrible things I've done to the people.
But he got a good idea.
And finally he arrived to Tommy's house and he put the presents near his bed after all.
Well, folks, wasn't that a good show?
And it was all done by Nicholas Schoen and his sister, Sandrine Schoen, and have a very nice Christmas and good night.
