Grumble's Adventure in Getting the Presents Back to Santa
By Juliet (his little sister) & Christopher
Once upon a time there was a talking reindeer named Grumble. He had a green AND red shiny nose, purple ears, candy cane antlers, gumdrop eyes, and a silky brown body.
Some days he liked to pretend he was Santa de...livering presents and other days he liked to pretend he was a cat. He was really good at school work but he had an unfortunate weakness in his nose. When somebody touched it, he lost his power to fly and because he had such a unique nose everybody was wanting to touch it.
He didn't like the leaves that people were always trying to feed him but he loved a good hot mac'n'cheese dinner. Grumble lived in Canada, because of the maple syrup.
One day Santa was hiring new reindeer to fly his sleigh, so Grumble went up to Santa to see if he could fly for him. Santa told him that he needed to take a test. Grumble was sad and nervous to take the test. He was sad because he thought that Santa would be too heavy and he was nervous because he didn't know if he would do good.
The day of the test came and he got ready with the other deer. He pretended he had the courage but he really was not so confident.
However ninja kangaroos were stealing the presents!!! Grumble used his good nose and sniffed out the ninja kangaroos that stole the presents. When he found them he fought the ninja kangaroos with one hand tied behind his back and kicked their butts all the way back to Australia!
In the end Grumble brought back the presents to Santa. Santa was so impressed that he didn't make him take the flying test. And he got to pull Santa's sleigh.
And Santa gave him a a hot mac'n'cheese dinner every night.
The End
