Local children worked hard to create the most earnest, appealing letters to Santa for 2019. Read along to hear just how good they’ve been and what they’d like to see under the tree this Christmas.
The Collierville Herald-Independent has preserved their creative spelling, spacing, capitalization and punctuation just as they appeared in the original letters.
