Rudolph

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is a fictional character created as part of a Christmas story and song. He is a reindeer who has a shiny, red nose, which sets him apart from the other reindeer who have normal-colored noses. The story of Rudolph has become a popular part of Christmas folklore, and many people associate him with the holiday season.

The story of Rudolph was first created in 1939 by Robert L. May, a copywriter for Montgomery Ward. May wrote a story in verse about a young reindeer who was ostracized by his peers because of his shiny, red nose. Eventually, Rudolph's unique feature helped him save Christmas by guiding Santa's sleigh through a foggy night. The story was later adapted into a song by Johnny Marks, and it became a popular Christmas song that has been covered by numerous artists and played on the radio during the holiday season.
