VIRGINIA: Meet Virginia. She's eight years old and lives in New York City, one of the biggest cities in the world. Virginia loves one thing more than anything else, Christmas. But when her faith in Santa Claus is shaken by a fight with a schoolyard bully, she embarks on a quest to discover the truth. Is there a Santa Claus?

OLLIE: Ollie is Virginia's best friend. He's a few years younger than she is, and they're almost like brother and sister. He's talkative, full of energy, and knows for certain that Santa Claus is real. In fact, he sees him all the time in the streets of New York City.

SCRAGGLY SANTA: Once a reporter for the New York Sun, Scraggly Santa now stands on the corner in Herald Square raising pennies for the poor. He believes in helping others, just like Santa would.

CHARLOTTE: A snooty, self-absorbed little rich kid, Charlotte is a year or two older than all the other kids, but already acts like a grown up. She's convinced Santa isn't real, and will stop at nothing to make sure all her little friends know that.

EDITOR FRANCIS CHURCH: Francis Church is the gruff and grumpy editor of the New York Sun newspaper. He prints facts, and only the facts. He doesn't have time for charity, little girls or Santa Claus—that is, until a letter from Virginia comes across his desk.

DR. PHILIP O'HANLON: Virginia's father and one of New York City's most prominent doctors, Dr. O'Hanlon is a firm believer in science and reason. So he's not sure how to respond when his daughter asks him the fateful question, "Is there a Santa Claus?"

MIRIAM: The head librarian at the newly-constructed New York City Library, Miriam enthusiastically helps Virginia and Ollie hunt down proof of the existence of Santa Claus. Maybe she helps a little too enthusiastically.
