Little Golden Book Christmas - Day 20

Little Golden Book "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer"
Barbara Shook Hazen (Adaptor), Richard Scarry (Illustrator), Robert L. May (Adapter),
24 pages, Hardcover, First published February 1, 1939
- Although the other reindeer may laugh at him because of his bright red nose, Rudolph proves his worth when he is chosen to lead Santa Claus's sleigh on a foggy night.

ABOUT RUDOLPH
Rudolph first appeared in a 1939 booklet written by Robert L. May, and published by Montgomery Ward, the Chicago, Illinois (USA), department store. In its first year of publication, Montgomery Ward distributed 2.4 million copies of Rudolph's story. The now familiar tale of Rudolph, a young reindeer with a glowing, red nose, and how he came to Santa's rescue one foggy Christmas Eve, has become a Christmas classic.

Dear (child’s name),

I know you can't read this yet, but I wanted to send a note letting you know how excited I am to share your first Christmas with you! One day when you're bigger, you'll know just how special and wonderful this time of year is, and all about God's amazing gift to the world, his son Jesus Christ.

Since this is your very first Christmas, you get a special spot on my Good List! When you're older, you'll have to be sure to listen to your family, be kind to others, and do your best to be a good person, but for now, being a sweet, cuddly baby is just fine! The joy you bring to your family is one of the greatest gifts of all, even better than the toys I bring!

I can't wait to peek in on you when I fly into (city) this Christmas. I'll do my best not to wake you up, since a baby sleeping all night is quite a blessing! Merry Christmas, (child’s name), and welcome to the world!
Love,
Santa Claus
