But one day their where three people. The animals did not know what to do. Nando thought that they where checking on the house while the Bazes where gone. Polly and Jim thought that the people where stealing from the Bazes. The next night after the people left, Polly found one of the windows open, so she jumped in. In the house there was only furniture. Because Polly did't know what to think, she went to talk to Jim and Nando.
"Come! Hannah," said Seth, jumping up and down. "The presents have finally come!" He finished saying this when Hannah arrived, still panting for breath. "There is one for me and one for you and Ma, Pa, Carrie, and Jack!"
"Why, let me see mine; I want to open it right now!" said Hannah. "Ma said we have to wait till Christmas," said Seth. Hannah did't want to wait a long time, so she went to ask her mom how long it was till Christmas. Her mom was in the house knitting by the fire.
"When is Christmas?", asked Hannah. "In one week," said Ma.
