The whole world is getting into the Holiday spirit.
Everyone, it seems, except for 11-year-old Sam Park.
Stores play Christmas music.
Neighbours hang up lights and gather in the town square for the lighting of the giant Christmas tree.
At school, kids talk about what gifts they hope to get.
Sam plays Christmas carols at Youth Orchestra concerts and at her school concert.
She hears about presents under the tree and turkey with stuffing and all the trimmings, all the while wondering.
