After falling down a chasm while on a hiking trip with Carrot Top, Derpy finds herself lost in a gigantic forest, where the plants are the size of trees and the bugs are more like monsters. Separated from Carrot Top, alone and scared in a world she doesn’t understand, she finds help in the form of loyal creatures called Pikmin. But while trekking through the dangerous wilderness she will have to learn what it truly means to be a leader, or risk losing all of her faithful friends, as well as her only chance at getting home.

This story is written in alternating chapters with Growing Tall ~ Carrot Top as a collaboration between me and JJ Gingerhooves. It’s possible to read this as a standalone story, but if you want the full experience then start with Carrot Top and follow the links at the bottom of each chapter.
