Buddy wakes up in a garbage dump, filled with a certain awareness: he’s a teddy bear, he spent time at a Store, and he is meant for the loving arms of a child. Now he knows one more thing: Something has gone terribly wrong.

Soon he finds other discarded teddies-Horace, Sugar, Sunny, and Reginald. They all agree that they need to get back to the Store if they’re ever to fulfill their destinies. So they embark on a perilous trek across the dump and into a world filled with seemingly insurmountable challenges. Can they find their way home?
