If Mice Pulled the Sleigh

If mice pulled Santa’s sleigh, the book supposes, the flight would be grounded because they’re not strong enough. Cats would not be able to agree on a direction, dogs would be distracted by the wind on their faces, and elephants would fall right through people’s roofs. After testing out snakes and ducks, too, Santa reckons it would be best to stick to tried-and-true methods, using reindeer to pull his sleigh on Christmas Eve.
