After seeking the help of a strange old woman, Gerta is amazed to see a
tiny girl emerge from the blooming petals of a magical flower! Gerta has
always wanted a child of her own, so she adopts the tiny maiden and
names her Thumbelina. While Gerta sleeps, a strange creature creeps
forth from the darkness and steals Thumbelina into the night. Lost and
alone in a forest, Thumbelina must seek the aid of the forest creatures
if she is to ever see Gerta again.
