Realm of the Vermilion King: the Tick-tock People Ken Turner

Deep in the Land of Dibble, on the outskirts of Mayomay Bay, the future of the Tick-Tock People is in peril. A vengeful brute named Burcheeze has stolen their Grandfather Clock, which must be wound once per year to keep time ticking forward. Meanwhile, in Schmendricktonville, Saskatchewan, twin sister and brother Allison and Alistair McAllister face a gloomy weekend at their eccentric Auntie Bernice's house. While there, they stumble through a magical clock which wisks them away to the Land of Dibble and the Tick-Tock People. They soon find themselves embroiled in an adventure that takes them on an odd, mystical and sometimes dangerous journey to save their new friends. On their quest they must battle carnivorous plants, meet up with a roving band of Giants and are taken captive by the Pirates of Perilrock Peak, who may not be all that they appear, while they also begin to unravel the clues to the mysterious fate of the once majestic Crimson King. It's up to the McAllister twins to save their new friends before time runs out, literally, while learning valuable lessons about friendship, tolerance and finding one's personal strength from within.
