Snow Plot Summary

What happens in Snow from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 12 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 2-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

Nick Snowden, who is really the son of Santa Claus, falls for Sandy Brooks, a pretty zookeeper at The San Ernesto Zoo. When Buddy, a young reindeer who has not yet learned to fly, needs help, Nick follows Sandy home to lend a hand, and a gentle romance begins to bloom between two people who come from very different worlds. The story unfolds with warmth and a dash of holiday magic as the pair team up for a rescue that could change everything.

At the boarding house, Lorna — the landlady and owner — initially mistakes Nick for a tenant, but her welcoming nature soon makes him feel at home. Her openness helps bridge Nick’s world with Sandy’s, and the mood of the town grows more festive as Christmas approaches.
