Once upon a time there was a elf. And the elf hated Santa Claus. So one day the elf did not work! And that was a bad thing. Because if a elf does not work, on Christmas the boys and girls will have no presents and if the children had no presents thought the elf the children will hate Santa Klaus and they will not want Santa Klaus. And that is just what the elf wanted so the elf said to all the other elfs that they did not have to work.
So the other elfs believed him. And the elf said that every day. And when it was Christmas there was no toys made for the children. The elf thought that they hated Santa Claus but they did not. The children just thought that Santa Claus could not come. The elf was surprised.
Why didn't the children hate Santa Claus? The answer was because the children were just happy to have baby Jesus in the manger, and the have one another. The elf was confused. And he felt bad. He told Santa Claus what he had done. He asked Santa Claus to forgive him. And he did but Santa Claus said that he had to make toys for all the children and he did.
And they all lived happily ever after.
The End.

Hi, Isabelle! I thought your story was just wonderful! I have a daughter who is 8, too, and she is also in the 3rd grade with MODG! Maybe you guys could be penpals or something? Emma likes to draw and write stories, too. Keep up the good work! Your story was great!

Excellent story, Isabelle. I found it quite interesting because the other elves were convinced to follow the elf who was doing bad things, but it didn't turn out like he thought it would because of the love in the children's hearts.
Keep on writing stories!
