Lines from the book
Look closely, think cleverly and be gentle with the house: good detectives never leave a mess!
The Silver Sleigh Bell rings just once on Christmas morning, to tell the reindeer their work is done. Until it rings, the reindeer can't go to bed, and they are very, very sleepy!
Extra magic: tie a small bell to the gift ribbon. That is the Silver Sleigh Bell!
