The Story of Snow

The movie is about Nick Snowden, who is actually the son of Santa Claus! Nick needs to find a young reindeer named Buddy. Buddy hasn't learned to fly yet and is stuck at The San Ernesto Zoo.

Nick meets Sandy Brooks, a kind zookeeper who works at the zoo. He needs her help to get Buddy out. So, Nick follows Sandy home. There, he meets Lorna, who owns the boarding house where Sandy lives. Lorna thinks Nick is a new renter and lets him stay.

Nick also meets a boy named Hector. Hector's mom, Isabel, works for the post office. Hector is super smart and figures out that Nick is Santa Claus!

Nick and Sandy start to like each other a lot. Sandy doesn't know Nick's secret identity. She helps him get Buddy out of the zoo. Nick usually travels by magic mirror, but it only works with special snow from the North Pole.

There's also Buck Seger, a hunter who works at the zoo. He likes Sandy and sees Nick as a rival. Buck finds out Buddy is from the North Pole. He plans to sell Buddy to a hunter! Nick, Sandy, Hector, and Isabel must chase Buck all over town. They rescue Buddy and send him safely back to the North Pole.

On Christmas Day, Nick leaves a special china doll for Sandy. Then, she goes back to the North Pole with him for a magical Christmas ending!
