Along the way she encounters some colorful characters: a scraggly Santa ringing a bell and an excitable librarian with a shelf full of Christmas books. Having found no answers, Virginia writes to The New York Sun newspaper. Her letter makes its way to the desk of grumpy editor Frank Church, who is far too busy and upset with the world respond to a little girl's questions. But through Virginia's determination and help from Scraggly Santa, Mr. Church is persuaded to write his answeran answer that becomes the most famous newspaper editorial of all time.
