The children trick Mr. Potts with a fake half of the map while they decipher the real thing and find out where the treasure is hidden.

The book is about twelve forest creatures whose mates disappear after being crystallized by a dark dust that falls every evening. The forest creatures combine forces with Zac (the handsome woodcarver), Ana (his beautiful half-elf, half-human wife), and their timid, chubby, winged "doth" Pook (inspired by the author's dog Misty) [3] to save the creatures and restore the dying forest.
