Christmas Reindeer

Christmas Reindeer

Christmas Reindeer

Thornton W. Burgess

In the frozen vastness of the Northland, two Eskimo children live among their beloved reindeer, finding joy in the simplest pleasures of Arctic life. When the mist steals Tuktu away from her brother Aklak, she stumbles upon something extraordinary: a jolly stranger with a white beard and a remarkable sleigh. The Good Spirit, as she knows him, sees something rare in this kind little girl, and in return for her generosity, he offers her a gift that will change Christmas forever. Tuktu dreams of sharing her beloved reindeer with children everywhere who have none, and her wish becomes the magic that powers the annual journey through the night sky. Thornton W. Burgess weaves a tender tale of wonder, showing that the truest magic lies not in receiving but in the willingness to give. This is a story about a child whose big heart is enough to reshape the world, written with the gentle warmth that made Burgess a beloved name in children's literature for generations.
