It serves as a sequel to "Little Mr. Thimblefinger and His Queer Country" and features characters from the previous tale, particularly focusing on the adventures of Buster John, Sweetest Susan, and Drusilla as they explore a magical realm alongside Mr. Thimblefinger and other whimsical characters like Mr. Rabbit. The narrative blends playful storytelling with morality, a hallmark of Harris's work, rooted in folk traditions. The opening portion introduces the children as they return from their previous adventures and expresses their curiosity about Mr. Thimblefinger's world.
