Dingle, Dingle! Here Comes Dwindle! More Little Christmas Stories for Girls and Boys by Lady Hershey for Her Little Brother Mr. Linguini

Aren''t Dwindle''s adventures at the North Pole amazing? He''s such a lovable little elf, whose biggest dream is to one day help Santa Claus run the North Pole. We really hope you enjoyed Dwindle''s adventures as much as Mr. Linguini did.

It''s Christmas Day, and there is fresh glistening snow everywhere. Mr. Linguini is happy because Santa Claus had the milk and cookies we left for him, and Dwindle had milk and a blueberry muffin. Santa Claus and Dwindle gifted us a blue bookshelf to share, and we plan to fill it up with wonderful storybooks. Dwindle also left us each a Christmas card that he drew himself. The cards say, "Being you is awesome," and we will treasure them forever.

Mr. Linguini and I learned the real meaning of Christmas from Santa Claus and Dwindle. Christmas isn''t all about presents. It''s about spending time with family and friends, and being kind to each other all year around. We wish you the cheeriest, jolliest, merriest Christmas ever!

Merry Christmas, and dingle, dingle to all!
