FLIGHT OF REINDEER 15TH ANNIV CL

Children have believed the legend forever: On one evening each year a jolly old elf and eight reindeer fly all night long to deliver gifts around the world. The fact is, solid evidence abounds. Robert Sullivan, a senior editor at Life magazine,diligently gathered documentation from scientists, historians, zoologists, and Arctic explorers to prove that Santa is not just a myth. First, the reindeer: Do they really fly? 'œWe used to think it was just extended leaping,'� says Tony Vecchio, director of the Roger Williams Park Zoo in Providence, Rhode Island. 'œBut recent evidence has confirmed that it is true flight.'� And Santa Claus? 'œHe's just as real as the gifts he brings,'� reports Will Steger, the famed Arctic explorer. Thegorgeous illustrations, convincing photos, and charming text make this book a special holiday gift.
