Embark on a magical journey to the past, delving into the North American Ice Age, where forgotten faerie realms of elves, dwarves, dragons, and gnomes coexist with woolly mammoths, giant sloths, and American lions. Dazzling faerie kingdoms grace the American landscape alongside ice sheets and expansive magical woods, where deserts stand today.

Teenage cowgirl and amateur scientist Feleena Ochoa, along with her fantasy-loving younger brother, Jack, find themselves unintentionally transported to the Ice Age by a spell meant for their geologist and plant expert mother, Jane.

As a brewing war against the orcs unfolds, Feleena, armed with her mother's plant knowledge and cowgirl smarts, takes it upon herself to assist the elves and find a way back home.

Now, Feleena must join her newfound friends on a quest to brew a potion that will thwart the orcs' conquest of Ice Age North American Ice.

Will Feleena succeed in saving the future, rescuing her brother, and returning to her own time? The challenges and adversaries she faces in this enchanting adventure will determine the fate of her quest.
