"CAN I DRIVE THE SLEIGH!?!
C'mon!
Where's your holiday spirit?
It would be a Christmas MIRACLE!"
It appears that Santa does not want Pigeon to be in charge of navigating his sleigh on Christmas Eve. He asks readers to make sure it won't happen. Pigeon has many ploys and arguments for letting him have a go at it. All that's really needed is a little holiday spirit, right? Admittedly, Pigeon's record is not stellar.
Santa's sleigh? What could be better than that? Regaling readers with festive greetings and compliments should work; it does not. That leaves Pigeon giving as many reasons as he can think of to convince readers that he is up to the task. When pleas fail, he gives it his all.
LET ME DRIVE THE SLEIGH!!!!
Frustrated, he takes a closer look at the sleigh itself and discovers it is nothing like the bus. He cannot be sure what makes it go ... and the smell that comes from the reindeer team? No, thanks! It leaves Pigeon offering himself for another kind of delivery. Discarding his Santa hat, he dons bunny ears in anticipation for egg delivery at Easter.
Always funny, and sure to be read again and again.
