What is The Empty Stocking about?

It is Christmas Eve, and twins Sam and Charlie are wondering whether they have been good enough for presents. Charlie is certain to find an empty stocking because of her naughty behaviour, while Sam expects a wonderful Christmas morning. But when Santa accidentally delivers the presents to the wrong twin, Charlie must act quickly to put things right. As the night unfolds, she discovers that kindness, honesty and helping others may be more important than being perfectly good.
