The Polar Express is about a little boy and his adventure to the North Pole. On one Christmas Eve night the little boy heard a noise. When he looked out his window it was a train; he boarded the train and began the journey to the North Pole. Once he arrived, he met Santa and was given the fist gift of Christmas. He chose a bell off of Santa's sleigh as his gift. On the journey back home, he reaches into his pocket to find that there is a hole in this pocket and the bell is gone. He was so sad when he got home, but on Christmas morning he opened his presents to find the silver bell as one of his gifts. He rang the bell and his parents could not hear it, because it only rang for those who truly believed.
