Goldie's Christmas Wish: One Doe's Ambition in a Buck's World

by James B. Calomb, Zoe Paige Dieffenbach (Illustrator)

Overview

Santa knew it was coming. The population keeps growing. He has to do something, or he won't finish on time next Christmas. There will be too many children. Santa needs a second sleigh, a sleigh driver, a reindeer team, and a reindeer team leader; he needs everything by next Christmas.

Team leader is the most coveted job for a reindeer at the North Pole. Traditionally, Santa appoints a strong buck as a team leader. Against all tradition, Goldie wants to be the reindeer team leader for Santa's new team. Goldie is just a young doe with an odd yellow nose that glows uncontrollably at times. Can Goldie overcome the obstacles against her and become a team leader?

Goldie's Christmas Wish is a beautifully illustrated and enchanting children's Christmas story that unfolds with a delightful mix of intrigue, suspense, humor, innocent reindeer romance, reindeer magic, and revelations of North Pole secrets.
