Overview

The children transport themselves to Dragon Land through the use of a magical dragon scale with the line, "I wish, I wish with all my heart to fly with dragons in a land apart." at the beginning of each episode. They are then transported back to their world using the same scale and the phrase, "I wish, I wish to use this rhyme to go back home until next time."

In Dragon Land, the children meet up with their dragon friends — Cassie, Ord, Zak and Wheezie (the latter two conjoined twins), and their bilingual teacher, Quetzal, as they learn valuable life lessons, aided by the fact that the children are inexperienced with the magical flora and fauna of Dragon Land.

It is not revealed where the children's home is, however, one often sees palm trees combined with mountains outside of their bedroom window, suggesting California. As a contrast, Dragon Land is in a more temperate climate, with flora and fauna more typical of the northern United States and snow in the wintertime. However, the weather is also managed by Pollynimbus, the weatherdragon, and weather conditions can vary greatly from place to place in Dragon Land.
