Arizona orphan Emma Lou didn't expect anything special on her birthday. She never dreamed a wooden Indian Chief would said out of the clouds and carry her into an adventure in the fabulous Land of Oz! After plunging through the skylight of Silica Valley's Royal Glassworks, they meet Princess Vitrea, still pining away for the Prince of the Blue Mountain. Did Zeebo the Sorcerer have a hand in the disappearance of the Prince?
