Nick Snowden, who is really the son of
Santa Claus, falls for Sandy Brooks, a pretty
zookeeper who works at The
San Ernesto Zoo from which he must rescue Buddy, a young
reindeer who has not yet learned to fly. He needs her help to get Buddy out, so he follows her home. Nick meets Lorna, the
landlady and owner of the
boarding house where Sandy stays. She thinks Nick is a
tenant, gets to know him, and lets him stay in the boarding house. Nick meets Hector, whose mother, Isabel, is a
postal worker. Hector figures out that Nick is Santa Claus. Nick meets Sandy and falls for her. Sandy falls for him too and is unaware that he is Santa Claus. She helps Nick get Buddy out of the zoo and back to the
North Pole. Nick usually
teleports himself in and out by mirror, but the only way the mirror works is by using North Pole snow. Buck Seger is a hunter who works at the zoo and has a crush on Sandy. He sees Nick as a rival and researches that Buddy is from the North Pole. He plans to sell Buddy to a
big-game hunter. Nick, Sandy, Hector, and Isabel chase Buck all over town and rescue Buddy and send him back to the North Pole. On
Christmas, Nick has left Sandy a
china doll in her bedroom, and she goes back to the North Pole with him. ==Cast==
