Lost in the vast Australian outback, young Dot faces the dangers and wonders of the wild. When a motherly kangaroo takes her under her wing (or rather, pouch), Dot begins an extraordinary adventure. With the help of talking animals and magical berries, she discovers the unique creatures of Australia and learns valuable lessons about friendship and respecting nature.
