The Day Rudolph Ran Away BY LEE ANN RICHARDSON Grade 3 Usborne Central Once upon a time there were two reindeer. They lived in a cave. One day the mother had a baby. They thought they would call him Rudolph. But right at the sight they saw a red thing flashing. "It was his nose," said his mother and they-laughed. And then his father put some sand on his nose so it wouldn't glow. He went out to play with the miler reindeer. He was not looking where he was going and he bumped into another reindeer. They told their names and they made friends. They played together. But just then the sand came off and all the reindeer laughed. Rudolph cried and he went home. Late at night he sneaked out, The next morning they woke up and Rudolph was gone. They looked everywhere, They didn't find him. They were very up-set and they said that they were sorry. One day Rudolph came back. He sat down by his mother and father and they kissed him and Santa Claus came in and said, "Will you be the leader of my sled?' Yes, I will," said Rudolph, Christmas Day BY FREDDIE MILLER Grade 7 Stephen Central Playing, exciting, Jesus, manger, king, Joyful', jolly- happy, merry, New, starting, 1978, Beginning, January 1, New Year's Day. itaxhia-PlexAtiiaxt' *hea*rat 341,as Timeli-Advecute, December 22, 1977 Pug. 09 troztozovwx.m.:00totimizfiwwontoci !it 0 a cig 0 ;IC :51,11$11306T.
