Life in Indiana was quite the adventure for young Jamie Diggs and his parents. After a tumultuous move from Kansas, Jamie explores the covered bridges, forests and cemeteries of rural Indiana where he discovers the ways of the Hoosiers.

When his parents bring up an old humpback trunk from their basement, Jamie discovers his magical heritage lurking inside, including a pocket watch that predicts the weather, an old gold coin bearing the likeness of three young girls and an odd assortment of magical aparatus.

Jamie learns the ways of magic from a local magic club, meets Tree-In-The-Road, gathers Morel mushrooms for his mother’s legendary potato soup and discovers his great grandfather, the original Wizard of Oz's sentry stone.

He soon finds himself transported to the Land of Oz where he must face the wrath of the Fighting Trees who have grown bitter after their defeat at the hands of the Tin Woodman so long ago.

In this compelling tale of fantasy and adventure in the Land of Oz, the young magician discovers new friends along the way, conquers his fears and battles the oncoming wave of trees and mushrooms alongside Dorothy and Toto.
