One
December, many
years ago,
Santa Claus
had a cold.
“ACHOOOOOOO!”
sneezed Santa.
“I don’t feel
well enough to
do Christmas
this year.”
Santa picked
up the phone
and called his
friend, the
Easter Bunny.
“Hello,” said
Santa. “I have
a bad cold.
Could you fill
in for me this
Christmas?”
“I
really don’t
know much
about
Christmas, “
said the
Easter Bunny.
“I’m usually
taking my
winter nap
during that
time of year.
But I will try
my best.”
So the Easter
Bunny called
his chickens
together.
“This year
we’re going to
be helping
Santa Claus
with
Christmas,”
said the
Easter Bunny.
The
first thing
the Easter
Bunny had to
do was to find
out what
everyone
wanted for
Christmas. The
children were
confused
having to sit
on the Easter
Bunny’s lap to
tell him what
they wanted.
Next he had to
get the toys
that the
children had
asked for. But
his chickens
didn’t know
how to make
any of them.
So
he went around
to all the toy
stores buying
everything he
needed.
The Easter
Bunny’s
chickens had
trouble
wrapping the
presents. So
they
painted them
instead.
The Easter
Bunny’s
chickens tried
to make him a
red suit and
hat like
Santa’s. But
they didn’t
know what
Santa’s suit
and hat looked
like.
The Easter
Bunny didn’t
have a sleigh.
So he had to
use a little
red wagon to
carry the
toys. Since he
didn’t have
any reindeer,
his chickens
had to pull
the wagon.
He had
trouble
getting up and
down chimneys.
Instead of
just stuffing
toys into the
Christmas
stockings, the
Easter
Bunny stuffed
toys in every
sock in the
house.
He
hid the
presents so
the children
would have to
hunt for their
presents like
they did
Easter eggs.
On Christmas
morning,
everyone was
very confused.
Soon
it was Easter
time. The
Easter Bunny
was hopping
the Bunny
Trail when he
fell down and
hurt his leg.
WILL
SANTA CLAUS BE
ABLE TO HELP
THE EASTER
BUNNY WITH
EASTER?
