A Different Kind of Christmas 1996
As the city attorney, she expects only legal challenges, not the chaos her father creates. After her mother’s death, he intensifies his self‑styled “Santa Schtick,” converting their home into a year‑round Santa‑clause castle. Children of every age are invited to marvel at the lavish gifts, and no child ever leaves empty‑handed, keeping the holiday spirit alive.
