- a.k.a. Buddy, der Weihnachtself
Einst landete das Waisenkind Buddy zufällig im Geschenksack des Weihnachtsmanns und somit in Santas Werkstatt am Nordpol. Dort wurde er von seinen Adoptiveltern zum Elfen ausgebildet. Leider ist er inzwischen dreimal so groß wie sein Ersatzvater; und damit Buddy kein Außenseiter-Dasein unter den Elfen fristen muss, schickt man auf die Erde, wo er nach seiner wahren Familie suchen soll. Kein leichtes Unterfangen, schließlich kennt sich Buddy im Großstadtdschungel ganz und gar nicht aus, was zu jeder Menge Turbulenzen führt.

- a.k.a. Elfe
Buddy, un être humain, est élevé par les lutins du Père Noël depuis sa plus tendre enfance. Lorsqu'il atteint l'âge et la taille adulte, ces derniers s'aperçoivent que cette différence physique commence à poser quelques problèmes : anormalement grand pour ce lieu légendaire, l'homme provoque en effet un joli scandale au Pôle Nord ! Renvoyé dans son pays d'origine, il se lance à la recherche de son père biologique, un sinistre éditeur, à New York.

- a.k.a. Elf - Un elfo di nome Buddy
Buddy è un bambino curioso che vive in un orfanotrofio. La notte di Natale si infila nel sacco di Babbo Natale, che però se ne accorge solo una volta tornato al Polo Nord. Qui il barbuto Santa Claus diviene una specie di padre adottivo del bambino, che cresce assieme agli altri elfi. O meglio, lui cresce, mentre gli altri restano... elfi. Divenuto chiaro che Buddy non può vivere nel mondo degli elfi, viene rimandato dove è nato, alla ricerca dei suoi veri genitori. Ben presto però si accorgerà che la grande città non è fatta solo di pattinaggio sul ghiaccio e zucchero filato.
