Description
After losing their house to foreclosure, three siblings - India, Finn and Mouse - have less than twenty-four hours to pack their belongings and fly, without their mother, to stay with an uncle in Colorado.
But when they land, a mysterious driver meets them at the airport in a pink car adorned with feathers. He has never heard of their Uncle Red.
Like Dorothy in Oz, they find themselves in an unknown place, with no idea of how to get home. Time is running out . . .
