<P> Nine - year - old Ralphie Parker wants only one thing for Christmas : a Red Ryder Carbine Action 200 - shot Range Model air rifle with a compass in the stock and `` this thing which tells time '' ( a sundial ) . Ralphie 's desire is rejected by his mother , his teacher Miss Shields , and even a Santa Claus at Higbee 's department store , all giving him the same warning : `` You 'll shoot your eye out , kid . '' </P>
