Esmeralda and her dad love to visit their enchanted pond deep within a Florida forest. They see animals busily scurrying to and for, trees and plants growing wild, and pond creatures serenely sunning themselves. While Esmeralda's dad uses his imagination to explain the natural events that take place around the pond, Esmeralda wants more scientific explanations for what happens during each season.
