His adventurous nature takes him all over the wooded mountains surrounding his home and guides him to a number of extraordinary discoveries.

As Jimmy listens to Jo-Pac weave a tale of history, trial, and magic, he realizes that he's being presented a choice: he can either embark on a magical adventure fraught with greater peril than he's ever faced, or he can stay home and avoid the hazards of the mystical world that lays just a Red Ring flower bulb away. As Jimmy and his friend Tommy set off on an adventure, only time will tell what dangers they'll encounter-and whether they'll escape with their lives.
