Kelly and Kai love to play on the old tree trunk near their cottage in the woods: sometimes it's a horse, sometimes a crocodile and sometimes even a dragon.

One day a mischievous gnome uses magic to turn the tree trunk into a real dragon which takes the children to the Land of Long Ago. On their incredible journey Kelly and Kai meet a princess, rescue a knight and trick the grumpy king of the trolls. But can the old tree dragon bring them home again?
