Dear Santa

Tommy, aged five, pens his Christmas letter. His request? More brains for his family; they just don't understand him. 

He begs his mum to post the letter. With only one day left, it may not get there in time—he might end up with no presents.

Or, he might end up with exactly what he requested. 

Santa Claus is coming. Be careful what you wish for.
