How The Reindeers Got Their Antlers by Geraldine Mccaughrean

The reindeer think they look ugly with their knobbly antlers and so hide themselves away in the cold, frozen North - away from the stares and laughter of the other animals. Then, one winter day, Father Christmas needs help to pull his heavy sleigh. Of all the animals in the world, only the shy reindeer step forward. In return, Father Christmas gives them a very special, magical gift, the gift of flight on Christmas Eve. A wonderful Christmas story from Geraldine McCaughrean, with pretty, seasonal pictures by Heather Holland.
