The Best Present in the World The BestPresent in the World The following Readers' Theatre script was adapted from "The very best present in the world" written by PenelopeBender. It was rewritten by Pansy Koh Hwee Lin, Kow Hui Meng,Jamunah Rani and Lam May Yuen to suit the Singapore context. Narrator: Today is her mother's birthday and May isvery troubled because she does not have enough money to buy her muma present. May: 75, 80, 85 cents. (Sigh!) This is only enough tobuy the bottlecap of Mummy's favourite Chanel No. 5 perfume.What am I going to do? Narrator: May flips through the New Paper and saw a hugeadvertisement. May: (Reading the newspaper aloud) Guess the number ofCoke cans contest. 12 - 3 p.m. Grand prize: $200. Winner will beannounced at 3:30 p.m. today. Wow! That's just what I need... if only I could win ... Narrator: May went down to Cold Storage to join thecontest. May: What a huge crowd gathering around the contestarea! Wait a minute. Isn't that my classmate, Janice? Narrator: May walked up to Janice. May: Hi, Janice, what are you doing here? Janice: Hi, May! I came to join the contest. May: Me too. I'm going to get the contest formnow. See you later! May: (Thinking aloud) Gosh! There are rows and rows ofCoke cans piled up high like a pyramid. How am I going to startcounting them? Narrator: After hesitating for a very long time, May finallydecided to make her guess. May: I think I'll write 9,999 cans on the contestform. Please God ... please let that be the lucky number! Narrator: After dropping the entry form into the box, Maywaited impatiently for the results to be announced. At 3:30 p.m.,the emcee stood up and announced that the number of Coke cans wasNine thousand, nine hundred ... May held her breath ... andninety-nine. May: I won! I won! Narrator: May collected her prize joyfully. As she walkedout of Cold Storage, she met Janice again at the bus-stop. May: Oh, Janice! I won the grand prize! I'm goingto Takashimaya now to get a present for my mum. It's herbirthday. Janice: (Sadly) I'm very happy for you. May: (Concerned) But, you don't sound very happy. Is anythingwrong? Janice: (Sobbing) My ... my ... mother is very ill at home and shecan't get out of bed. I went to the clinic near my house butDr. Tan would not make house calls unless I pay $200. Butwe've no money. I'm really afraid of losing mum.She's all I have since daddy passed away. May: (In deep thought) Oh, dear! That's terrible. (A shortpause) What do you intend to do? Janice: I don't know. Narrator: May gazed at the prize money in her purse. After deliberatingfor a short while, she pressed the money into Janice'shands. May: Here, take this. Go and get Dr. Tan right away! Janice: But ... but ... you need this for your mum's birthdaypresent. May: Don't worry, it's okay. She'llunderstand. Janice: Oh! Thank you so much! Thank you so much! I'm sure my mumwill pay you back when she gets well. Narrator: Janice rushed back to her mum while May walked home slowly. Sheis happy that she had done a good deed but worried about hermother's birthday present. May: (Dejectedly) What should I do? I still don't have anypresent for Mum's birthday. Guess I'll just make a cardfor her. The card won't mean much without a present but ...it'll have to do. Narrator: That night, at the birthday party, May'sbrother gave their mother a gold necklace and her sister gave hermum a Versace bag. May: Mummy, I wanted to give you a present, but thiscard is all I have. Mother: But, May ... You've already given me apresent. Janice called and told me what you had done. You see,sweetheart, all the presents in the world wouldn't mean asmuch to me as knowing that you've understood what I'vebeen teaching you. May: What's that, Mummy? Mother: How to love, May. And that's the bestpresent in the whole world that any child could ever give to aparent. May: Do you mean it, Mummy? I wanted so much to giveyou the very best present in the world. Mother: Of course, I do, sweetheart. You have indeed givenme the very best present in the whole world and I'm veryproud of you! May: Oh ... Oh! Mummy, I'm so happy!
