John Saves the Day!

John's class presented a musical based on "The Night Before Christmas." He was supposed to be a Caroler with a couple of lines.

The day of the performance, the kid who played one of the lead characters "Papa Mouse" was sick. John's teacher asked him to take the part. He had 20 minutes to learn all of his lines! A bunch of lines. Not only did he learn them, but he performed without a single mistake!

Here he is in the beginning of his performance as Papa Mouse, leading the other mice, while not a creature was stirring behind them. His part was a lot bigger than in the original story!! :)
