Santa & Waldo Back Safely at the North Pole

How Waldo Became the Hero Who Saved Christmas

On Thanksgiving, Santa Claus and Waldo Elf were blasted into orbit aboard The Santa Shuttle, an unfinished spaceship. Since then, they’ve been circling the Earth with no way to return home. But thanks to Waldo’s clever idea to have the reindeer rescue them, they are back at the North Pole today!

Amid cheers and shouts of joy, Santa and Waldo landed safely. "Ho ho ho! I'm so glad to see you all!" Santa shouted as dozens of elves rushed to welcome them. "It feels wonderful to be home! I want to thank Waldo for his brilliant idea. People often say Waldo thinks differently, and this is a perfect example of why having him around is so important!"

Hooray for Waldo! Three cheers for Waldo!” the elves cheered, lifting him onto their shoulders. Waldo grinned from ear to ear—today, he wasn’t just an elf. He was the hero who saved Christmas!

"Waldo our friend who saved Christmas this year,
You’ll be remembered year after year!"

“Shucks, I’m just happy to help get us down. I missed all of you so much, and I’m glad you’re not mad at me anymore!” Waldo said, grinning from his high perch.

But then Santa called out, “Excuse me, please! I wonder if you could help me over here—I don’t seem to be able to get up!”

What’s wrong with Santa? Why can’t he get up? Keep reading The North Pole Times to find out!
