Shirley Temple produced this series of one-hour television adaptations of children's stories, hosting with her real-life children. It began on NBC as a series of specials and anthology segments titled THE SHIRLEY TEMPLE [STORYBOOK] THEATRE. When this Christmas Day installment aired, it was retitled THE SHIRLEY TEMPLE SHOW.
Alan's and Jane's evil Uncle Barnaby (Jonathan Winters) hires three pirates (Joe Besser, Carl Ballantine, Jerry Colonna) to kidnap the children, so he can inherit the fortune left by the two orphans' parents. A storm shipwrecks the pirate ship on the shore of a remote island, and the children (Angela Cartwright, Michel Petit) escape. Gypsy witch Floretta (Shirley Temple) helps the villains track the children, first to Meantown and eventually to Toyland. The Master Toymaker of Toyland takes the children to his heart, and with the help of toy soldiers, prepares to defeat Barnaby and his pirate henchmen.
