An amazing journey of secrets, self-discovery, kites, and lemonade!

Together the girls encounter a clever cat, come across an ancient key, and find a mysterious old workshop full of books, inventions, and trinkets hidden under their building. Join them on their exploration of their amazing discovery and its secrets!
