All Maggie wants for Christmas is a charm bracelet just like all the other girls have in the junior high. Even just one charm would do. One special charm. But instead she gets books, pens, socks, and… underwear. Underwear! And now here she is at the Soup Bowl on Christmas morning with her mother, the last place she wants to be. But at the Soup Bowl, Maggie meets a lot of people: Old Man Higgins, the babushka lady, the plaid shirt man, and a little girl named Lily who steals her heart. In just a few short hours, Maggie experiences the true meaning of giving and compassion, and she learns that a “special charm” is not the kind that you wear on a gold bracelet. Not at all.
