The Story: The Magic Lake is an Inca legend about a little girl who leaves her home to travel to the Magic Lake to bring back magical water which is to save the prince who is sick and dying. Ampata travels with her trusted llama and two maccaw birds who protect her. Along her harrowing journey, she outwits a giant rattlesnake, a huge red scorpion and swarm of ferocious army ants. Does she find the magical water and make it back in time to save the Prince?
