New Reindeer at the North Pole for Santa!

a new reindeer
Tumshie, the new reindeer

We got a new reindeer at the North Pole today.  Mrs Claus told me recently that it would be an idea to have a few more reindeer in case any of the others got ill.  She is a very wise lady and I had to agree.

However, when the newest reindeer arrived I realised that he might not be up for the job.  He is a beautiful reindeer but, well, he isn’t very good at flying!

When I took him for a test flight he almost crashed into the house. Then he almost landed in some trees!

I was really disappointed. I didn’t know what to do.  So I went in for a hot chocolate and some of those fancy imported marshmallows. I needed to think.

My Grumpy Elf and the new reindeer

It was then that I heard the sound of laughter from the yard.  I looked out to see Scunner, the Grumpy Elf, throwing snowballs at the newest reindeer.

I was so upset.  Bullying is not allowed at the North Pole! I quickly opened the window.

“Scunner what are you doing?”  I shouted.

Scunner turned so quickly, his big feet got tangled in his long lab coat and he fell onto his bottom.

“Santa, I was just playing.” He stammered.

“You are bullying the poor animal.” I was getting quite upset.

“No, I’m not,” Scunner began to sob. “He’s my new pal.  We were playing.”

And then the reindeer surprised me.  He gave Scunner’s face a great big, wet lick!  Then the reindeer gently pulled Scunner to his feet.

“I’ve called him Tumshie,” Scunner said and the reindeer bleated in agreement.

I felt really bad.  Here I had jumped to a conclusion and that was not a good thing to do.

I don’t know what we’ll do with Tumshie yet, but it’s very nice to see new friendships start.

  1. Santa

    Once 2 girls, no 3 girls were ganging up on me and told the teacher for something I DIDN’T do, also they told my friends and my friends didn’t want to be friends with me anymore and went on There side! Also Santa, Maybe the new Reindeer could be next To Rudolph, they could ALL have a race, and maybe whoever wins gets to guide you’re sleigh, then you do it again again and again, untill there is only 1 Reindeer left, and then you write down the order it is in, and at Christmas, you take the piece of paper and look who’s the first, after the first house the seccond, and when you have run out of Reindeer, you start with the 1st one again!

    Love from Lola

  2. Hi Santa! I have been really good this year. I do say bad words now and then, but that’s only when I’m reading and don’t know it’s a bad word. Oh! I forgot to ask, how old is Scunner, the Grumpy Elf?

  3. You should train your new reindeer. Ask few of your elves or Mrs. Claus to train him/her I saw in a movie a reindeer couldn’t fly but the others helped him! So maybe the reindeers in the reindeer language can help Tumshie! As an advisor for my friends, I advice you to do that. But don’t treat your new reindeer like a dumb guy, he might fly away! Check every twenty minutes sneaking up to the reindeers because they might be mistreating him/her. Take care! Also prepare the new reindeer by Christmas! If you see me in bed, I will say hello in my dream!

  13. once a substitute gave me 5 laps for quietly asking for my books back when the person next to me was yelling. I told the substitute what happened and got 10 laps for taking another students books when the books belonged to me.

  52. I feel delighted to hear that a new reindeer has been introduced into the christmas spirit and group of reindeers. Maybe you should take tumshie on flying lessons more often and eventually he will get better and better at it.

  53. I seem to always get blamed for things my dad does and he takes credit for any good ideas I come up with. Its not fair, but who am I to complain.

  54. You should train Tumshie. I know you don’t have time to since Christmas is right around the corner. If Mrs.Claus don’t mind maybe she can take care of your jobs while you are training Tumshie
