Set in a quaint, snow-covered town, the story follows a young girl named Ellie, who is struggling to find her Christmas spirit after her family moves to a new home just weeks before the holidays.

Through humor, adventure, and heartfelt moments, Ellie learns the true meaning of the holiday season: family, friendship, and believing in the magic of new beginnings.
