The adventures of four mismatched toys: Snowden, a pessimistic teddy bear called Drummer, Footloose, a bunny with extremely large feet, and Tiny, a claustrophobic elephant. The owner of the toys, Adam, and his family move from Ohio to New York City just before Christmas. Though his parents think that Adam should be excited about getting new toys for Christmas, the boy is more concerned about his old favorites making the trip safely to their new home. But as the moving truck beings its journey, the cardboard box containing the four toys is thrown from the truck, leaving them stranded far from New York City.
