My Great-Aunt Irene

Sarah dreaded the upcoming Christmas season.Dad had just been layed off from his job,and she worried that now she
wouldn't get the present she most wanted.Plus,everything was different now,and her parents worried about money.Sarah
is made to stay home one afternoon,and sulks because instead of going skating with friends,she has to stay at home to meet
her Great-Aunt Irene.
Honestly,it's not fair.What does that ancient old lady have to be so happy about?,Sarah wonders,as she hears her raucous laugh.
Yet,Great-Aunt Irene is about to give Sarah the most precious gift of all.
