snow-covered street.Hestarted his long night of deliveries to good little boys and girls.While the children slept behindclosed doors,he laid the gifts on the front stoops of houses without fireplaces.He tiptoed up anddown the stairs and hallways of the apartment buildings,carefully placing the children's wishesby each of their doors.Whenever he saw a wreath or stocking hanging on a door,Santa hummed alittle bit of“Jingle Bells.”Recalling from memory what each child wanted,Santa left the hallwaysand stoops full of dolls,bikes,games,skates,toy cars,and trucks and presents wrapped in red,white,and green paper.  \nWhile on the third floor of one apartment building,Santa suddenly stopped in his tracks.Hisbelly felt uneasy.Santa looked over the railing and thought he saw a shadow move in the stairwell.He called out,\"Rudolph,is that you?\"No one answered.When Santa looked for the shadow again,he saw nothing,so he got back to work.Santa had many more towns to visit.He had to work fast.  \nSBWO1■  \n-O  \nAlittle later.outside one house.Santa felt uneasv again.A cold breeze passed across the back ofC I,             ,a“4PHhis neck.He thought he heard the crunch of snow behind him.He quickly turned his head,hoping to see what he heard and felt.But like before,there was nothing.Santa felt much colder.Heshiveredas the coldness seeped through his red suit and his thick,white long johns.Santa thoughtout loud,“My imagination must be working overtime.”Then he smiled,climbed in his sleigh,andwent on with his deliveries.  \nOn that same Christmas Eve,Santa and his reindeer landed on the roofs of houses that hadfireplaces.Santa grabbed his overflowing red bag.He scurried down the fireplace chimneys andlanded in the homes of snoozing children.Happy to see the
