This is the story about Rudolph, a young reindeer who possesses an unusual glowing red nose. Teased and taunted and excluded by the other reindeer because of this trait, Rudolph manages to prove himself one Christmas Eve after Santa Claus catches sight of Rudolph's nose and asks him to lead his sleigh that night.
