A Sterling family struggles with poverty during Christmas. Phil, age twelve, lies about affording a turkey while his parents try to keep dignity with strict economy, patching clothes, and reading aloud. Neighbors and relatives attend meals and visit in a crowded year.
On the day before Christmas Mr and Mrs Philip discover a ten pound turkey in their stockings. The gift comes from their son Little Phil who had secretly forgone his own small luxuries for months to make a real Christmas for the family. The gesture brings Mrs Philip greater happiness than the turkey itself.
