Historical Background

Santa Claus's sleigh is pulled by nine reindeer. Their names come from an 1832 poem by Clement C. Moore, which likely helped popularize reindeer as one of the symbols of Christmas. Santa's friendly helpers are: Dasher, Cupid, Blitzen, Comet, Prancer, Vixen, Dancer, Donner, and the most famous, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. The first story about Rudolph was written by Robert L. May in 1939 for the Montgomery Ward department store chain. Children visiting the store during the holiday season received this book as a gift.
