When Posey Peeked at Christmas (By Ann Dixon) – A Grandma mouse is telling the story of Posey to her grandchildren. In the story she tells, Posey is a young mouse who can hardly wait for Christmas. When no one is watching, she opens all her presents. Then she rewraps the presents and puts them back under the tree. But then Posey feels bad and worries that Santa won’t bring her anything. But in the morning, Posey does get presents from Santa and among them is a small box, on which is written “Do Not Open Till Christmas.” Posey saves the box and never opens it year after year. As the story ends, the grandchildren realize that their grandma is talking about herself and the small box is hanging on her Christmas tree.
