Synopsis

Indie Kidd, a lively ten-year-old, faces a daunting school assignment: listing her top three talents. Struggling to identify even one, she embarks on a quest with her best friends, Soph and Fee, to discover her hidden abilities. From hair wrapping to magic tricks, Indie tries it all. Along the way, she encounters a shy, black, blob-like dog in need of a home. Through her efforts to help the dog, Indie realises that her true talent lies in doing good deeds—perhaps not perfectly, but good(ish).
