A Michigan Night Before Christmas
Description
'Twas the night before Christmas
and all through the halls
There's just one little problem:
Bears sleep through it all.
So, Yooper sets an alarm and
he wakes up all right.
When his parents ask why
he says, "Because Santa comes tonight!"
Yooper the bear wants to see Santa face to face. There's just one little problem: Bears sleep through Christmas.
Yooper gets around the problem by waking everyone up a few months early. Papa isn't one bit happy, and tells him Santa doesn't visit bears. Ever! But Yooper remains hopeful. He knows he's been a good cub all year - well, except for that alarm clock - but hey, you can't blame a guy for trying.
Santa must have received Yooper's letter, because when he gets to Michigan's Upper Peninsula he adds one more stop to his itinerary. Yes! In the end, even Papa is a believer!
