2. Synopsis – The Wagon of Dreams
Baugi, Nerthus and Gorm are three friends who live in a caravan. In the morning, they wake up, dance, and get ready to tell a story.
The Wagon of Dreams, Cheryl the crow and Steed the giraffe join in and help.
The story starts far away, at the Great Rock, where the merfolk live. Merfolk are mermaids and mermen.
Seewedia, a mermaid, is upset. It’s her birthday – but the other merfolk have forgotten!
The merfolk bake Seaweedia a rainbow cake to cheer her up.
Next, we meet a Fisherman who is scared of fish and water. He doesn’t want to take his boat out to
sea. He says he will only get on his boat if a turtle sings.
Then Badderman appears. He’s the baddie in the story. He wants to own everything.
Badderman is afraid of jellyfish.
Back at the Great Rock, Seaweedia discovers a necklace. She decides to find its owner and it return
it to them. This is a dangerous mission! If Seaweedia doesn’t return to the mercave in a year, she
will lose her tail... and grow legs!
Nearly a year passes. Seaweedia is still looking for the owner of the necklace. She is very tired.
The Fisherman still waits on the beach. Then he hears a turtle sing! He realises he must take his
boat out to sea. He finds Seaweedia, asleep on his boat. He agrees to help her return home to the mercave.
On their journey across the ocean, Seaweedia and the Fisherman become friends.
Badderman steals the necklace from Seaweedia on the boat.
Seaweedia’s time has now run out! A year has passed, and she has grown legs.
Seaweedia sees a big pink jellyfish chase Badderman. Then she sees a shark who is missing his teeth. She realises that the
necklace is made of sharks teeth, and that the shark is the owner of the necklace.
Seaweedia returns home. Badderman arrives at the mercave with the necklace.
Seaweedia calls the Jellyfish to come and help. With the jellyfish’s help, they get the
necklace back from Badderman.
And that’s the end of Baugi, Nerthus and Gorm’s story. On to the next adventure!
