Zach Clark and his younger sister Alyson wait for Christmas while wise men—the figurines from their mother’s creche collection— travel all over their home in search of the baby Jesus. Kittens, Flop and Plop, make the wise men’s search even more arduous by absconding with one infant Jesuses and sending him flying all over the house. Several creche crises occur, and Zach learns that waiting for Christmas may be as important as the holiday itself.
