Before we know Rudolph and his story, we should know about Bob May, the person behind this kid's favorite because the actual story of the creator of Rudolph is also not less than any astonishing fairy-tale. Bob May's wife, Evelyn, was a cancer patient nearing death. They had a little daughter who, on a December night, approached him with a question "Why isn't mommy just like everybody else's mommy?" She was wondering why her mother always stayed away from her. Bob wanted to give a Christmas gift to his daughter, but his wife's treatment had left him bankrupt. Left with not even a single cent, Bob decided to gift a story book to her, and this led to the creation of the wonderful character Rudolph. Since then, the legend of Rudolph has become a prominent Christmas legend.
