Raised by alligators in the Okefenokee Swamp, an adopted, insecure dragon and his female best friend, a tiny fearless tree frog, venture to the outside world to find his real mom. Along the way, he not only finds his inner strength and magical powers, but together they save the swamp from a mining tycoon who threatens to wipe out the Okefenokee and, unknowingly, the local town as well.
