Mrs. Santa Claus said, “If the old fellow had a new coat, perhaps he would not be so lazy or grumble so much. Here is my work basket, and some cloth, go to work if you please.”
Mrs. Santa Claus opened a slide in the wall and disappeared!
“Ha, ha, ha,” cried the Fourteen Little Darling Dogs.
Curly-Tail cried, “Hurrah! hurrah, we will make Daddy Do-Little a new coat out of this cloth.”
My, how busy they were!
One Little Darling Dog got a tape measure and measured the cloth.
One Little Darling Dog got a pair of scissors and went, “snip, snip, snip.”
One Little Darling Dog began to unwind a spool of thread, and the other Little Darling Dogs sat around in groups threading needles!
Curly-Tail skipped about giving directions.
