Ivy is sad. She lives in a city and the colours she used to see around
humans have faded. Her world is getting greyer and greyer.
With her friend Stoat, Ivy sets off on a mission to help reconnect the
humans with the beauty of an urban environment.
On her way to meet the Old Dandelion she experiences the joy of the many
native animals and flowers that live in towns.
Does Ivy succeed?
Do the colours return?
