Shantay's winter vacation is beginning along with the holiday parties, caroling, and special times with family and friends. Unfortunately, instead of enjoying the season, she is focused on purchasing a tube of "Cinnabearry" flavored lip-gloss. When the girl learns the drugstore is out of her favorite flavor, her quest becomes an obsession.
Actually, the elusive lip-gloss is the least of her problems. After witnessing an accident, she becomes caretaker of a "bad" dog. She finds herself sad and lonely when her selfishness alienates her friends, Inez and Vanessa, and also her siblings, Ricci and Clarissa. On top of this, she is confronted with a moral decision when she discovers a box of presents. Will the mounting problems have Shantay yelling, "Bah! Humbug!", or will the magic in the season gift her something more precious than a shopping cart full of presents ?
