Eli and his friends must face Snake-Eyes Ralph at school where he uses his creepy “hypnotic stare” to make students mindlessly fulfill his selfish wishes. Now, Snake Eyes tells Eli to drop out of the town’s skateboard race or face trouble. Eli desperately needs more courage than he has. To escape his fears Eli drifts into an imaginary adventure trying to solve a mystery with his sister Audrey in the jungle. Facing dangers everywhere, Eli wonders if God can give him enough courage to survive. Will Eli end his imaginary adventure with enough courage to take on Snake-Eyes Ralph in the real world, and maybe even win the skateboard race? It’s a close call.
