Set in the quirky village of Witchetty Hollow, the story follows eleven-year-old Florizel as she encounters mysterious newcomers opening a Daydream Delicatessen and a sack-baby factory. Initially, the villagers are thrilled with the prospect of affordable "children" from the factory, but this excitement hints at deeper, unforeseen consequences. The narrative explores themes of community, the nature of childhood, and the implications of commodifying innocence in a whimsical yet thought-provoking setting.
