PBC Musical Collection Red Chris Moose “ We Wish you a Merry X-mas, 2007.

Chris Moose Origins:

Allen Northcutt's fun-filled holiday tale weaves a whimsical ugly duckling story of animal friends that love an amiable but tattered moose whose name is Ugly.

The story addresses everyday issues of how ugly names are hurtful and it is not nice to exclude someone from a group because they are different. In the end the animals embrace Ugly as part of their group and change his name to Chris Moose, because it sounds so much like "Christmas," and Christmas is what his spirit is all about.
