May is a magical gnome who loves picking berries and collecting acorns. But, what she wants more than anything is a true friend. So when a berry picking expedition turns into an unexpected trip to the human world, May couldn’t be happier. This could be her chance to finally find the friend she’s been looking for!
But the human world is full of surprises, and as May ventures further from her magical gnome community, she realizes friendship is sometimes found where you least expect it.
