In Boy Blue's basket there were a horn and a drum, a box of tin
soldiers, and three books. Under the basket was a new red sled.
Mary found two dolls and a trunk full of dresses for them, a toy
kitchen, and a writing desk in her basket.
Little Sister sat on the floor and began to take the presents out of
her basket, one at a time.
First, there was a big wax doll in a doll carriage.
It was such a pretty doll, with a blue coat and white hood, all ready
to take out to ride!
Then there were some picture books and another doll,--a big one that
could open and shut her eyes.

But what was this in the bottom of the basket? It was very soft and
white and had curly hair.
Little Sister picked it up carefully. "Put it on your head," said Boy
Blue. So Sister put it on. It was a fur cap.
Then she found a fur collar, and last of all, a dear little fur muff.
When she had them all on, she ran up to her mother.
"See my muff, Mamma!" she cried.
