Young Westby is a gifted child, excelling in school and winning the Spelling Bee World Championship. Unfortunately, he is often faced with jealousy and bullying from his peers. Westby is surrounded by many envy eyes. In a world riddled with anxiety and stress, Westby turns to flowers for comfort. To him, daisies represent beauty and never fail to bring a smile to his face.
After a particularly difficult day at school, Westby finds himself staring hopelessly in the mirror. To his surprise, he sees not his reflection but the image of a girl, Giselle, desolately plucking daisy petals. “He loves me, he loves me not…” she mumbles in despair. As he reaches out to her, he is pulled through the other side of the mirror, into the fantastical world of Giselle.
