Summary
The incredible voyage of 10-year-old twins Casey and Lacey Nicefolk finds them flying cross-country rescuing people after being given a charmed box that turns their toys into real, life-sized machines. Casey enlarges a replica of the Wright Brothers’ plane, dubs it Vin Fiz, and takes Lacey and their dog away from the family’s California farm to fly across America. With the amazing ability to spot people in trouble all over the country, the two engage in rescue activities from Nevada to Niagara Falls.
