Two Days of Christmas

J.O. de Graft Hanson

Esi Ata wakes up one Christmnas morning and goes to present her parents with a card, only to be told it is not Christmas day, instead an ordinary September morning. Her mother shows her that there is neither Christmas tree nor any other sign of Christmas. A visit to a friend's house confirms this. Later, she goes back to bed, only to be return to reality as her twin brother awakens her from a vivid life- like dream. She is more confused than ever, as he wishes her a Merry Christmas, and this time, unable to believe it, she sets out to prove him wrong. With her parents and brother very much in the dark about what has happened, it takes the family's red-tailed parrot Uncle Tom, to help her understand why there were two days of Christmas.
