We Rhinos are not gifted correspondents. We have many stray thoughts and dazzling impressions, but pretending that Santa is interested is a stretch. The point of these letters is supposed to be letting Santa know what would make our dreams come true.

The difficulty is that Rhinos have few ideas about things, how they would involve fulfillment or a sense of satisfaction for more than three minutes. Probably part of our problem is that Rhinos never own anything, so one anything is about as useful as another, as far as We know.

We try to start our letters early, leaving plenty of room for improved understanding. And then again, when are We supposed to send the letter and where? Pretty convoluted, if you ask Us. Most of the time, We are doing O.K. anyway. So that’s a Good Thing.
