In Waldo, Tell Me About Christmas, a little boy is more interested in his presents than in why we celebrate this joyous day until his best friend, Waldo, helps him learn the true meaning of Christmas. In The Star of Melvin, the smallest angel—who is responsible for the smallest star—is given a very special task. Can love alone make his star shine bright enough to show the way?
