On Sunday
morning, millions of children awoke to find presents from Santa Claus piled
high beneath their Christmas trees. But for 11-year-old Billy Prescott, the
only thing beneath his tree was the floor of his family home in Faketown,
Connecticut.
“I don’t understand,”
said Prescott “I was good all year. I was sure Santa would come.”
The boy’s parents,
Roger and Helen Prescott, were equally baffled. “I helped Billy make cookies
for Santa this year and everything,” said Mrs. Prescott “We had fully prepared
for Mr. Claus’ arrival.”
“Look, something is
wrong here,” said Mr. Prescott, “Billy is 11 years old and this is the only
year that Santa hasn’t come. Something needs to be done about this.”
