Randolph the Christmas Moose: A Yuletide Fable of Empowerment
Randolph the Moose lives with his mother in the Great White North. After a chance encounter with the reindeer from Santa Claus' sleigh-pulling team, Randolph finds new joy in trail running as he trains to join the reindeer in Santa's flight school. But when the head elf places him at the workshop loading dock instead (due to his tremendous bulk), Randolph has to use his brains and work ethic to earn respect at his new job... and even save Christmas . Imagine Rudolf the red-nosed reindeer, except... BE YOUR OWN MOOSE! " Randolph the Christmas Moose empowers kids to find the unique leader within themselves and to not allow stereotyping to limit their potential."
--AUSTIN HIGHSMITH GARCES, author of The Miracle Tree and actor in Dolphin Tale 1 and 2 " Randolph the Christmas Moose , filled with humor and character building, shares a twist to a familiar tale to produce an important message about how children can be hard-working, determined and true to themselves."
--ADAM DOVICO, educator and author of When Kids Lead, The Limitless School and Inside the Trenches "This is a charming and funny story that will not only entertain kids, but also help them understand that other people's opinions don't define them."
--LINDSAY THOMPSON, filmmaker and writer for PBS' Arthur "Randolph the Christmas Moose addresses many important childhood themes, including acceptance, endurance and bullying, without sounding 'preachy.'"

I love to read but have not read many picture books recently. And, many may not consider Randolph the Christmas Moose: A Yuletide Fable of Empowerment a picture book but I do. And, I loved it!
First off, the book starts off with a part of the Christmas fable that children love - reindeer. Unfortunately, they are not behaving any better towards Randolph than they did towards Rudolph in that Christmas classic. The big difference here is Rudolph may be leading the bad attitude.
Randolph does not like his treatment but after talking with his mom, he gets a plan in order, only to be disappointed again. But he works his plan until fruition.
That's an adult perspective. I cannot wait to share this book with my grandson. You, too, should share it with the children in your lives by picking up a copy. I have volunteered to share my review and all the opinions are 100% my own.
