Lisa Piper, an eleven year old girl from Cincinnati, Ohio, cares for her family because her father's passing has made her grow up too fast.
Her older sister Mary works in a toy store run by a man who sexually harasses her and is enraged when everyone leaves in anticipation of a blizzard on Christmas Eve.
Lisa's newfound belief animates an army of life-sized toy soldiers created by the Toymaster, and they drive Barnaby into the Forest of the Night.
