Magnolia Bloomgarden is not excited about spending her summer vacation in Tooth Kingdom working as a fairy for the family business. She couldn't care less about getting wings, learning to fly, or sprinkling magic dust, especially because she has to leave her best friend, Sun, behind. But all of that is about to change when she realizes Sun's family is being pursued by dark fairies who need just one thing to survive: teeth.

Magnolia is worried about what will happen to Sun and her family if she does not warn them that the evil fairies are loose in the mortal world. But before she can caution them that the fairies have potentially found a way to open their portal, Magnolia is led to the Tooth Kingdom by her uncle. There she soon discovers a perfect, happy world overshadowed by the threat of dark fairies who want nothing more than to destroy the peaceful kingdom. As the fairies make their presence known, Magnolia embarks on a dangerous journey to save both her kingdom and Sun's family from their sinister clutches.

In this children's fantasy tale, a tooth fairy-in-training must summon the courage to battle dark forces as a portal slowly opens and frees what everyone in Tooth Kingdom has always feared.
