Be warned this story is not a traditional Christmas story and may upset younger listeners.

Why is Santa Claus also called Chris Kringle and Saint Nick?
How does he get to all of the houses in one night?
What are the laws of physics regarding reindeer flight?
These are just some of the questions Timmy is going to get answered, by hiding under the Christmas tree and sneaking into Santa's bag of toys.

But when his house is the LAST house he visits that year, Timmy is accidentally (or maybe not) brought to the North Pole.

There he discovers that all of the elves in Santa's Workshop were once curious kids like him, who wanted to know more about Santa Claus! So Timmy helps lead an elf uprising against Christmas, although, the three Santa's have different ideas.
