Old man Marron may seem like an everyday miserable, bitter old mountain man...and he is. That is until his heart is touched by an amazing family of tiny creatures from deep within the Ozark Mountains. These tiny Thubtumpers from the land of Lilly Gilly, not only helped the old man overcome his selfish, stubborn ways, but they began to warm his heart by showing him love and kindness. In return, Mr. Marron leaves the tiny family a great gift of his own.
