For 150 years, the McFrickle farm was sown with Native American know-how and leprechaun luck. Now, nine-year-old Pandora is growing on a magically perfect farm. And that's just fine for Pandora. But magic and perfect don't nurture the strength it takes to thrive in today's wild and wobbly world. What it takes is a warrior's soul and a fire in your heart.
Lucky for Pandora, a warrior is watching. With Native American roots firmly planted in some of America's darkest dirt and a heart and soul living somewhere between Indiana and heaven, Pandora's Potawatomi great-times-six-grandfather stayed true to his dying promise to keep the Bodwadmi spirit burning in the hearts of his family. But how does a wise man from the past light a fire in Pandora's heart in the twenty-first century? With a charmed pumpkin seed sent on a devious deed, of course!
A pumpkin grows and soon Pandora is sowing friction, but is it enough it light a fire in her heart for fighting the problems she'll face growing up in a not so magically perfect world?
