More than anything, Amelia wants to follow in her aviator mother's footsteps and learn to fly airships. But her grieving father, Commander Erroway, has forbidden her from stepping inside a cockpit since her mother disappeared on a doomed flight. When disaster strikes and Amelia is cast adrift and alone on the flagship of Commander Erroway's fleet, she eventually crash lands in a distant country. Taken in by Fin and Huxley, two inventor brothers who live with their mother deep in the uncharted Juniper forest, Amelia is determined to fix her airship and fly home. But along the way, Amelia discovers that home is not always where the heart is, and that sometimes being lost is the first step to finding your way.
