Every evening, Bram carried gifts to the runners while the sleigh bells gave a tiny ting-ting in the blue snow. He wanted to invent a game no one could hear: lift, tiptoe, nestle, and let one secret package make the sleigh a little fuller.
Until one night, he found a round present rolling by the North Pole sign, soft as a snowball and tied with a sleepy bow. Because of that, Bram held it up to the moon to guess who needed it. Because of THAT, the sleigh creaked, and a bell almost rang.
“Shhh,” Bram whispered, smiling at the cold pine smell. He tucked the gift where it would not wobble, then stepped away before anyone thanked him. If you peek at the sleigh, can you spot the quiet package that made the bells keep their tiny ting-ting?
