Because of the sparkling pail that hangs from the curl in her tail, Darling the Curly Tailed Reindoe joins Santa Claus and his reindeer as they fly through the skies on Christmas Eve. At first, she gets scared and then she gets sleepy and even worries about Santa when he disappears down the chimneys. It's a night full of adventures for young Darling, but the long night has a very happy ending.
