There are the figures of Father Christmas on the lawns. there are wreaths on the doors and there are lights in the windows.
time, there was a great storm. The ship broke to pieces and only six people got into a small boat. The men were
tired and couldn’t find water. Soon the boat turned over and the men were in the water. Five of them were drowned.
But Gulliver swam well, and when he saw the shore, he swam to it. He got out of the water and slept on the shore
for many hours. When Gulliver woke up, he found that he was in a country where very, very small people lived. The name of the country was Lilliput. The little people were afraid of the Man — Mountain, as they named Gulliver. When they saw that Gulliver was a kind man, they let him go free. Gulliver lived in the
country for two years and then came back to England.
