Determined to save the grown-ups, who had been taken by a cold damp shadow to a mysterious world, Robert and Fartie follow a blackbird’s instructions to enter a magical turquoise-colored land. And when a wise dog greets them to explain that Mom and Dad are trapped in a castle with their memories missing, the brave duo vows to find the magic sand that can fix everything.
As they walk, fly, and dive across this colorful realm, can they rescue their family before they run out of time?
