          Rudolph: Santa's Guiding Light

          Rudolph is Santa’s famous ninth reindeer. He
          joined the herd a few years after the original
          eight. At first, he was terribly self-conscious.

          had an odd red nose. It wasn’t until Santa
          recognized his rosy bulb as a beacon of light
          that he was ushered into his role as leader of

          herd.
