Simon, the intrepid dreamer and eternal optimist, is on a new adventure. Riding his horse, telescope in hand, he sets out to find a hidden treasure. Marlene helps at first and they discover that a butterfly, a turtle, and a squirrel each has its own particular treasure. But none is the treasure Simon seeks. As he goes on alone an old gold miner asks Simon what treasure he’s looking for. He’ll know when he finds it, he answers. How he does just that provides a charming ending to Simon’s search.
