★Chapter 10★

◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎STORY SUMMARY◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎
Peter, Susan, Lucy, and Mr. and Mrs. Beaver started to pick up sacks and lay them down. Mrs. Beaver carried sacks for a long time. They told her to stop carrying sacks but she didn't.

After she finished, they started an adventure. They stopped in an old hiding-place for beavers in bad times. They ate something and slept easily. They woke up and felt a little cold and dreadfully stiff. They heard some jingling bells.

Mr. Beaver went out of the cave. They imagined that the witch had caught him. Mr. Beaver shouted,"It's all right. It isn't her!" They went out of the cave, too. Mr. Beaver said the witch's power was already crumbling. They didn't understand, so they asked him how he knew. Mr. Beaver said, "That she'd made it always winter and never Christmas? Didn't I tell you? Well, just come and see!"

They saw a man. He was a huge man and wore a bright red robe and a hood. Also he had fur inside it and a great white beard.

Everyone knew him because they saw him many times. However, they hadn't seen him in person. He was a Father Christmas.

He said, "The witch's magic is weakening." He gave them presents. Mr. and Mrs. Beaver received a sewing machine and a new house. Peter received a shield and a sword. Susan received a bow and a quiver full of arrows and a little ivory horn. At last, Lucy received a little bottle of what looked like glass and a small dagger. Father Christmas said, " In this bottle, there is a cordial made of the juice of one of the fire-flowers that grow in the mountains ofthe sun. If you or any of your friends is hurt, a few drops of this will restore them."

He left them and they started to walk. They ate breakfast in the hiding-place for beavers.. They enjoyed themselves.
