Flashback Friday!


Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer by Robert Lewis May
 Originally published in 1939


In 1939, Robert L. May, at the request of his employer, Montgomery Ward & Co., wrote a holiday story about a reindeer with a shiny red nose. At Christmastime that year 2,400,000 copies of the book were distributed through Montgomery Wards stores. The rest is history. Our edition is a facsimile of the original.




Do you remember when you first heard this story?


Rudolph will be in our Holiday Books under j 398.2 MAY. 
 If it is checked out and you want it, 
we can always put it on hold for you!
