Clara, 5, loves Christmas, especially the presents. For as long as she can remember, Clara has written a "Dear Santa" letter to Santa Claus at the urging of her mother. Well, this year she decides not to ask Santa for anything in her letter. Instead, she wants him to surprise her, and the "wait" becomes a calendar countdown and a whole lot of looking under the tree. However, Clara becomes worried when she finds no presents under the tree day after day after day. The countdown is on.... Does Clara regret the "no ask" decision? Do you think she will do the same thing next year? Let's read and find out what happens in the end.
