Strawberry Shortcake's friendship letter to children around the world elicits an invitation from Crepes Suzette to visit Pearis and the Pieffel Tower. Some of the other children and Custard are not so sure that it is wise to visit a strange land - a place where people and customs are "sooooo different," but Strawberry assures them that seeing the world through different eyes is one of the best things about making new friends. Strawberry, Custard, and Pupcake make the trip. Even though Custard is not so sure that she likes Eclaire, Crepes Suzette's pet poodle, Strawberry and Crepes Suzette's friendship starts out beautifully But when Pupcake accidentally causes "disaster and calamity" in Crepes Suzette's dress shop, things begin to fall apart. The pets run away and get lost; Crepes Suzette is so upset that she refuses Strawberry's offer of help; and Eclaire is captured by a dogcatcher! Before things can be put to right, the friends must come together to rescue Eclaire and find their missing pets. Everyone learns that when friends help each other, they can accomplish wonderful things.

Friends from all over the world descend on Strawberryland to take part in the first Great Friendship Festival. Strawberry thinks the festival will provide a wonderful opportunity to see the world through different eyes and believes that in spite of their differences, in the end most of the kids will be the same and like the same things.

One windy day, a tiny fairy named Sherry Bobbleberry gets blown into Strawberry's open window. She is a klutzy little thing who is convinced she will always be a major goof-up. She was on an errand for the Fairy Queen when she got blown off course. She knows it means she'll never be promoted to Fairy Princess First Class. When Sherry was being blown astray, she saw the creek rising - which means the whole fairy world is about to be flooded and needs to get back to warn everyone. Strawberry & Ginger Snap offer to help get Sherry back home. After a monumental journey (in which Sherry proves herself very self-sufficient), they reach the Berry Fairy Fields. Strawberry, Ginger, Custard, & Pupcake fall into the vines and find themselves shrinking down to fairy-size. They tumble and land in soft leaves...and see there's an amazing, thriving civilization down here. They also see Sherry's boss, Chief Periwinkle, treat her badly and won't listen to Sherry's warning about the flood. In the end, Sherry uses her special skills to help save the Fairy World from the rising floodwaters. She's hailed as a hero by all the fairies, and the Queen at last gives her the title Fairy Princess First Class.
