SYNOPSIS
A group of kids, aboard a boat on their way to a tropical summer camp, encounters a storm ... and is shipwrecked! They wash up on a desert island, alone and afraid. An attempt to choose a leader devolves into shouting and name calling. But they are discovered by a group of island kids, who are on their way to their daily game of coconut kickball. The native kids can't imagine why anyone would want to leave the island - it's a tropical paradise with no rules and no parents! Will the lost kids use a bit of island magic to get home, or will they stay forever, playing coconut kickball every day for years and years?
