Jenny Rose is a bit of a loner. She's not into dolls, the latest cell phones, or the coolest games. She loves spending time with her family and learning about their traditions from her grandfather. He passes onto her a secret ritual that only one family member in a generation can do, bringing Stanley the Snowman to life!

Stanley is a magical snowman, the embodiment of the holiday spirit and their family history. After months of preparation, the night finally arrives for "Operation Stanley," but things don't go exactly as planned! Her family decides to travel to Florida for the holidays and leave Stanley behind! Jenny and Stanley activate Operation "Save the Holidays."

They must do whatever they can to keep their holiday traditions alive, even if Stanley the Snowman must travel to Florida to do so!
