Children. Oh, yes.
Little Boy. We see him every year at Christmas.
Wishing Man. How would like to go with me to Wishing Land.
Children. Oh, goody! (Clapping hands.) That would be fine. Can you take us there?
Wishing Man. Of course I can. And that's just what we'll do. We'll all of us go to the Wishing Land. First, I'll call little Dumpling. Dumpling, little Dumpling, where are you?
Big Dumpling comes in from behind the curtains.
Big D. Here I am, Mr. Wishing Man. I was playing with my little horse and wagon. (He plays with tiny horse and wagon.)
Wishing Man. And how do you like being a great, big Dumpling?
Big D. Well, not very well. I'm always bumping my head on the doors and things. And all my toys are so very little I'm always breaking them.
Wishing Man. Where is your sister? Where is little Tootsy?
