Description:
A holiday classic by the author of Danny and the Dinosaur, available again-and now with full-color art! Milton the moose wants to help pull Santa''s sleigh. "I have never used a moose before," says Santa, "but I''m willing if you are." At first, clumsy Milton is not very good at landing on roofs. But when Santa''s sleigh becomes too heavy for the tired reindeer, Milton comes to the rescue. This reissued edition is a funny holiday twist on Santa and his reindeer by Syd Hoff, celebrated author of Danny and the Dinosaur. Santa''s Moose is a Level One I Can Read book, which means it''s perfect for children learning to sound out words and sentences.
