Following the success of "The Kingdom of the Green Glade" in 1994, the producers created a sequel. The story takes place in the middle of a forest, and the Kingdom is ruled by the wise Queen Bee. The fairy-tale insects resemble human characters in both appearance and character. The story carries an ecological message, due to the fact that the action takes place in a forest.

The story follows a young scientist in the contemporary world, who actually came from the world of dwarves, thanks to a magic potion, held by the Big Eater, ruler of the dwarves. The dwarf kingdom, Shuflandia, exists in a cellar of a library, and only the most obedient get the chance to grow to king size and inhabit the larger world. Once there, nobody wants to return to Shuflandia. Also, there are no women in Shuflandia.
