Pointy and Squiggly - by Arthur O'Keefe

Here is a drawing by Arthur of his characters, Pointy and Squiggly. The dialogue is jammed into the bubbles and isn't too legible, so here's a transcript:

Pointy: "I roar!"

Squiggly: "Why?"

Pointy: "Because I like to."

Squiggly: "Oh."

Christmas Morning by Ida O'Keefe

Since we are still in the Christmas season here at CBR, I thought Ida's new poem would be a welcome addition:

Christmas Morning
by Ida O'Keefe

On Christmas Night
Suddenly and Swiftly
From far away
We hear the sound of bells

And then a little red light glows
Then a peek of deer comes
We say, "Here comes Santa
On his sleigh!"

The jingling of bells gets louder
We pretend to sleep
So Santa comes

When we wake up
Our stockings are filled
With candies and delicious treats

That morning was happy
And so was the following night
When we went to sleep
We had a little treat
It was a box of popcorn!
