Book review 1-11

Do you believe Santa?? I believe Santa!! But Santa doesn't give me present recently. Why???? But I notice reason to read this book.
December is always a busy time of year at the North Pole. This is the home of Santa's toy factory. One year, it was especially busy. Santa was touring the factory making sure things were going to plan. As usual, his team of tiny elves was hard at work. Each elf had a different job. Dennis opened the letter sent by boys and girls. Bad's checked whether they'd been good or bad. Marco read what the good children wanted for Christmas. And Beth wrote lists of all the toys to be made. Paddy and Pip were busy operating the toymaker. Paddy read out the name of a toy. Pip typed it into a computer. The toy maker built it ...wrapped it... and stuck on a label. Alfie was sleeping the store room. He had the most boring job in the factory. It was so boring, he often feels asleep. "Wake up, Alfie!!" boomed Santa.” It’s time to go home." "Already??" yawned Alfie. "You're always asleep on the job," complained Santa. "Go home," he ordered," and don't come back tomorrow unless you're wide awake." Alfie trudged through the deserted factory. " If I was in charge of the toymaker, I'd never be bored," he sighed. Alfie had often wanted a closer look at the magical machine. Now was his chance. Climbing on top, he peeked down the main tube. But he lost his balance and fell in!!! Hours later, Alfie awoke surround by cogs and wires. "I must have knocked myself out," he thought. Suddenly, Alfie felt the walls shake. Paddy and Pip had started up the machine. “Oh no!" yelled Alfie. "I'll be squished to piece." Alfie scramble around in panic, tryning to get out. But the more he wriggled, the more he got tangled in the wiring. Alfie's wriggling had an odd effect on the toymaker. The first few toys came out fine...But the next stranger and stranger and stranger... The toy maker began churning out hundreds of little Alfie dolls. Santa tried to turn it off, but it just kept going. With an enormous burp, the machine shot out the real elf. Santa glared angrily at Alfie. "The toy maker will take weeks to fix and there are still hundreds of toys to make." "I'm s..s...sorry," sniffed Alfie. "I'll have to give these dolls instead," said Santa sadly. That year, instead of roller skates or a football, hundreds of children received Alfie dolls. And they were the most popular toy ever!! Next year, Santa and his elves had request for thousands more. So the elves fixed the toymaker to make Alfie in charge -as long as he stayed on the outside this time.
Alfie was missed!!! Therefore I couldn’t get present. I'm so sorry, but I hope to get present this Christmas.
