In simple rhymes, Rudolph’s story goes beyond the song. I read the original, which was first published in 1939, as well as one illustrated by David Wenzel. The modern illustrations are bright and engaging, but the words are the same. It’s in an oversized hardcover format. I like the complete story of Rudolph.  rebeccareid | Jan 6, 2009 |  The classic of 1939 with the original text of R. May who at the time I bought this book was still living (  ) bookswamp | Jan 21, 2008 | This is one of the most beautifully illustrated versions of this story I have found. I wish I had a painting of Rudolph sleeping in his bed as Santa walks in to hang in my home at Christmas. The Santa is dressed in traditional clothing and the details on his gloves and coat are amazing. I also love the sweet and innocent look as Rudolph is sleeping under the covers. This is my favorite book to share with the kids each year during the Holidays. (  ) mcarroll27 | Jan 10, 2008 |  no reviews | add a review
