Rowan is fed up. Her big brother has just earned his gold swimming badge. But swimming that far seems impossibly hard! Rowan doubts she'll ever be able to do it.
When Rowan falls asleep, she's transported to a fairy tale town. She meets a mysterious wizard, who tells Rowan about a terrifying, gold-stealing dragon. Zweifel is guarding the gold at Castle Yet, high on a faraway hill. Reluctantly, Rowan sets off to rescue it. But the road to Yet is long and difficult. To make things worse, Zweifel appears, filling Rowan with doubt. Thankfully, a forest fairy reminds her how far she's already traveled. Though Rowan hasn't reached the top of the hill, she just hasn't gotten there yet.
Will Rowan keep going when things are difficult? Can she reach the castle and defeat the dragon? And will she ever discover the true Power of Yet?
