To make sure that my parents understood, I declared that I wanted noting else. Nothing but a pony? my father asked. Nothing, I said. Not even a pair of high boots? That was hard. I did want boots, but I stuck to the pony. No, not even boots. Nor candy? There ought to be something to fill your stocking with, and Santa Claus cant put a pony into a stocking, That was true, and he couldnt lead a pony down the chimney either . But no. All I want is a pony, I said. If I cant have a pony, give me nothing, nothing. On Christmas Eve I hung up my stocking along with my sisters. The next morning my sisters and I woke up at six. Then we raced downstairs to the fireplace. And there they were, the gifts, all sorts of wonderful things, mixed-up piles of presents. Only my stocking was empty; it hung limp; not a thing in it; and under and around it -- nothing. My sisters had knelt down, each by her pile of gifts; they were crying with delight, till they looked up and saw me standing there looking so miserable.
