Fawn woke up the next morning to a very unusual sight.

The room smelled slightly funny. She rolled over in her bed to find that her sculpture was missing from the table! Fawn leapt out of bed, finding a baby reindeer sleeping peacefully on the floor, with a wood-like design on its fur and smooth, shiny hooves.

She smiled, stroking his head.

"I'll name you Prancer; that name sounds a lot like my favorite sleigh-puller," she whispered, "Dancer will be pleased to meet you."

When Prancer woke up, Fawn took him outside (with a bit of difficulty), and introduced him to all the other elves and reindeer. She soon noticed that he was light and graceful, but sturdy and strong.

"You will make a great sleigh-puller someday, I'm sure of it," she told him.

And how right she was.
