Junior, a teenage gnome, dreams of inventing gizmos and gadgets in his treehouse laboratory. His father however, wants him to be sensible and help distribute food rations to the soon-to-be-hibernating animals of the forest. Evil troll brothers Face and Slim try to thwart Junior's efforts with a carefully plotted plan to steal the food from the gnome secret food chamber. Junior and his best friend Sneaky, a paranoid neurotic crow, embark on a heroic journey to retrieve the stolen food, and save the forest from certain disaster.
