Synopsis: The Tablet

Jimmy Billings moves into a new neighborhood and befriends an aging neighbor Margret Dillon. A widower, well into her 90's who is very much active in mind and spirit. Jimmy visits often doing little things around the house for her since it was July and he had yet to make any friends. In return, Margret rewards Jimmy with long talks of years gone by, and her life when she was a child on that very street.

In the course of these discussions, small locked away tales emerge about her childhood and strange adventures she would be part of with her older brother, Jack and a package they had buried deep in the woods at the end of their street. The package, she claimed, contained not marbles, bottle caps or notes of childhood youth, but something else, something very special, a tablet. One, which held a magical secret within its scripture which would be Jimmy's mission to discover and turn this tale of past adventure into his own reality, discovering both the wonders and powers possessed by “The Tablet.”
