Hal's uncle Clarence had a car repair shop. Hal really loved to watch his uncle at work. But for weeks he was kept away so Hal won't see his uncle's very special project. Clarence had acquired a used race car that needed repairs. The car had a Delco light plant for a motor and used airplane landing tires.
In the meantime, to distract Lil Hal's curiosity, a big box weighted with bricks was wrapped and placed in the attic. His closet had the access stairs to the attic, so he snuck up to the attic for weeks to examine the mystery box.
When Christmas day came, he had the usual gifts under the tree; then he was told he could open the box in the attic. Hal unwrapped several boxes until he found the bricks. There was a note to go to the tree for instructions. there he found he was to follow the string, which leads him through a labyrinth of rooms in his and his grandparents houses and his grandpa's hardware store. The journey ended in the attached garage, where the yellow race car was waiting. What a glorious present for a boy!
A week or so later, his cousin got a turn driving the car, but he ended his trip by crashing into a building. When asked why he crashed the car, he replied, "I didn't know how to stop the car."
But all was well because it was only a small repair to fix the dent.

About the Author
Retired nurse, crafter, writer of stories and poetry, artist
As a child, I was sent to bed before my body was ready to sleep, so I made up stories until I fell asleep.
After every holiday meal, my dad and my gramp told stories about each other and themselves. I think they helped me hone my storytelling skills by remembering and retelling their stories to other people. My first published tale was "Lil' Hal's Giant Christmas Box." There are more stories to share.
My first writing contest was in Junior High, where an organization started a story, and students finished it and submitted for a prize. I won second place.
Later, as an adult, I wrote stories for my sons' Elementary classes during the "Right to Read" week. The children enjoyed hearing tales that were new to them. They grew excited to write their stories.
For many years life and work keep me too busy to write, but now with retirement, I can write and do crafts to my heart's desire. Writing is especially exciting for me because I had a lot of trouble reading as an elementary schooler. I was, in fact, dyslexic. Thankfully, I never gave up learning; I went from kindergarten through a Doctorate in Natural Medicine. I say, never give up, keep reading, because books can open up the world to you, too.
