It’s the last day of school before Christmas vacation and Alex, Chase, and the rest of Mrs. Walter’s fifth-grade class couldn’t wish more for the final bell to ring. But the day takes a crazy turn when a mysterious meteorite crashes through the classroom window—and a genie pops out! Bob, as he’s called, is willing to grant only one wish for the class to share, and if they can’t agree on something before the bell rings in an hour, they’ll get nothing at all. What follows is a debate that is at turns thought-provoking and hilarious—and at all times irresistible.

Christmas had become nothing more than an excuse for people to get what they wanted. Good or bad, it became a very selfish holiday. The use for Santa Claus became less and less because everyone's "wishes" had become non-heartfelt demands. Holiday Management decided to shut down the North Pole and provided Santa with a new home, a Genie Lamp. The only way Santa can be restored to the North Pole, was for someone to come along and make a true heartfelt wish. This is the story of how two young men have the chance to save Christmas, or will their own selfish demands get in the way?
