Overview

Some fortunate humans have secret insect friends that inspire their creativity. Nine-year-old Viga is an adventurous storyteller who hides her struggles with reading and writing because she is ashamed. Her classmate Sana is a model student, always focused and serious, with no time for fun. Viga's other secret is her new friendship with Taro, a cockroach who fuels her imagination. When Sana discovers and reveals Viga’s secrets, Viga must rise above the mockery to help Sana when her mother faces humiliation on live TV. Together, they must overcome their differences, team up, and learn the values of acceptance and compassion while saving Taro from an exterminator, capturing a Chinese emperor, and executing the perfect “Coup à la Cupcake” heist.
