The Children of Vaaylor is a story filled with kindness, friendship, responsibility, and love. It begins on an island where three children, Lila, Naunee and Kodi are sitting together enjoying cinnamon tea. The oldest, Lila, decides to reveal to the other two the dream she experienced the night before that sets them all on a quest to find a lost child. From making magical potions, to sailing across the sky, to riding on the top of Manatees, these three children all employ their mystical powers in their journey to find this lost child. After several twists and turns, their quest is finally accomplished, and the children return to their home in the accompaniment of a new friend. This tale teaches children to always believe in oneself, and live life by aiding each other through good as well as bad times.
