VeggieTales - Season 1 - Eps 14: The Star of Christmas
*The Star of Christmas* is the 14th *VeggieTales* episode and the second holiday special, released on October 29, 2002, and re-released in 2006 with *The Toy That Saved Christmas*. Unlike other episodes, it lacks a “A Lesson in...” subtitle and countertop segments. Its message is that love can't be taught through spectacle but must come from within—Jesus, the true "Star of Christmas," was sent to enable this change. Set in 1882 London, it has a *Charles Dickens* feel, and its sequel, *An Easter Carol*, directly parodies *A Christmas Carol*, featuring the same characters and setting.
