Ruby has big plans for the summer. She wants to swim with the dolphins but she has never seen them at Half Moon Beach. She sets up a campsite next to the forest and points her pirate ship due east. A nature girl at heart and a stargeezer by night, she sends a message to her favorite star, Antares. The next morning, the quiet forest became a jungle. Wild animals could easily destroy her ship and her dream. Then Ruby finds a small red fox named, Vera Cruz sniffing around her campsite. Vera Cruz makes a promise to help find the dolphins after Ruby meets her forest friends. As soon as they walk by two old oak trees, strange things begin to happen in a place where crystals speak, animals teach, and birds and words mysteriously appear.
