hearts! And we want to give special thanks for the delicious gingerbread. We enjoyed it a lot.

Please accept this little gift from us. It is an invitation for the Kremlin Christmas Tree party, which will take place on the 25th of December.

We would like to invite your son, Rex, your daughter Betsy and their three friends: the two reindeer and the snowflake (unfortunately I do not know their names).

If you accept this invitation we would be pleased to give them a ride in our family car to the Kremlin.

Love, Mrs. Brown

“This is so wonderful!” I say. “I need to call Mikky, Mary and Archie and tell them the amazing news!”

“Yes, my dear, please call them and find out if their parents will let them go to the party. And if yes, I’ll need to write to Mrs. Brown that all of you are coming.”

It is 25th of December. We are in the Alexander Hall of the Grand Kremlin Palace. The Alexander Hall is so big and beautiful. It’s walls are decorated with pinkish marble and gold. There are pictures that show episodes of the life of Prince Alexander Nevsky.

But the most exciting thing we see is a great beautiful Christmas tree. The tree is so tall that it’s top goes up to the ceiling, and the ceiling in the Alexander Hall is very high above us.

“Oh this place is so great and nice!” says Mary. “Thank you very much Mr. and Mrs. Brown for inviting us!”

“You are very welcome, Dear, it’s a pleasure for us!” answers Mrs. Brown with a smile.

An orchestra plays joyful music. The Alexander Hall is full of dogs. All the ladies wear wonderful dresses and all the men wear nice black suits. We all look amazing.

Suddenly the orchestra stops playing and a big Father Frost and a little Snow Maiden come in the center of the hall.

“Good evening dear guests! Welcome to the Kremlin Christmas Tree Party! Oh, you look beautiful tonight! Today is 25th of December and Western countries celebrate Christmas today, so let us enjoy this evening. We want to wish you love, joy and happiness and that all your dreams will come true!”

“Merry Western Christmas! Happy coming New Year!” little Snow Maiden says.

An orchestra begins to play again and all of us start to dance. I invite Mary to dance with me, Archie invites Betsy, Doctor Brown invites his wife and Mikky invites little Liza. We all enjoy dancing. After the three dances we take a little break. Tall waiters in white suits bring us trays full of refreshments: glasses of juice, chocolate candies and little cupcakes. After enjoying the tasty refreshments, we dance again.

“I like this first Christmas of the season,” Betsy whispers to me.

“Yes, sister, I like it too! And we have a New Year and a Russian Christmas ahead of us!”

“Oh I am so happy!” says my sister.

THE END

P.S.

I promised to tell you about the presents that we bought for each other. I gave a nice thick journal to Archie, so he can write his stories there; I gave five tickets to the show on the ice for my family, so my sister can see her favorite dances on the ice; I gave a book with recipes for Mikky, so he can learn to cook even better, and I gave a set of pencils to Marry, so she can improve her artist skills.

What did I get for New Year and Christmas from my family and friend?

Mary gave me a beautiful picture of me singing in the Father Frost’s costume (she drew it herself). The picture is so nice, so I put it on the wall in my room (near the picture of my family, which Timmy gave me last year on my birthday). Mikky cooked delicious cupcakes for me (we enjoyed it with all my family. Timmy was very happy). Archie wrote a little Christmas poem with special wishes just for me. My family gave me a yearly pass to the sport center, so I can become big and strong like my father and learn martial arts there.

I feel very happy, I love to get presents! But the most important thing I learned during this Christmas season is the joy of serving others!

«Щенок Рекс и тайна золотой кости»

Щенок Рекс с семьей и друзьями проводят летние каникулы в лагере, расположенном на острове рядом с Владивостоком.

Директор лагеря мистер Риш обладает семейной реликвией – золотой костью, которая досталась ему от прадеда, пришедшего во Владивосток много лет назад из Китая. Прадед в свою очередь получил золотую кость от Великого Императора за то, что спас однажды его жизнь.

И вот золотая кость исчезает. Мистер Риш не хочет привлекать полицию. Он подозревает, что кость украл кто-то из его команды. Если драгоценность не обнаружится в течение двух недель, то он уволит всех сотрудников лагеря.

Щенки решают создать детективную команду, сами разнюхать это дело и найти вора.
