Mr. Finnegan's Giving Chest

Do you think Santa's the only one who can give us the gifts we want?" said Mr. Finnegan. "Santa's presents simply remind us of a much greater gift, a gift inside ourselves." He lifted the fragile wooden chest by its recently repaired handle and placed it in a wagon. "What's that old thing?" Maggie asked sourly"This 'old thing' is the Giving Chest. It once carried precious gifts to a newborn king. I need you to deliver it to someone." Maggie brightened. "Is there a treasure inside?"Mr. Finnegan raised a brow. "For some people, indeed there is."
Mr. Finnegan (Dick Van Dyke) is no ordinary toy maker. His providential meeting with Maggie, a resentful girl who doesn't believe in the magic of Christmas, is the beginning of a series of miracles that will change her heart forever.
