Many years ago on Christmas Eve, a reindeer black as coal was born at the North Pole. He had a sapphire blue nose that would brightly glow, whether he wanted it to or not. This makes Randolph the Blue-Nosed Reindeer feel alone, because he stands out from everyone else. Even though he is very close to his cousins, who are like a brother and sister to him, what Randolph really wants is a friend outside his family. One day he builds a snow fawn to get his mind off things. Little does he know that the snow fawn will change his life forever. Randolph learns why he was gifted with a blue nose. He meets many creatures, gains new friends, and finds love in this very special children's story. Unfortunately, in the darkest part of the North Pole, where the sun never shines and it is always bitterly cold, lives a warlock whose heart is blacker than darkness itself. This evil warlock seeks to kill the kind-hearted blue-nosed reindeer and take over everything he sees. Randolph bravely chooses to use his glowing nose in an attempt to save the world, hoping to put a stop to the warlock's threat once and for all.
