In an Australian country town in the 1940s, Ginger Meggs (Paul Daniel) reputation precedes him he is an unruly prankster who plays truant, gets involved in fights and tells tall tales. While searching for his stolen monkey, Ginger encounters a jewel thief and sets out to win the heart of childhood crush Minnie Peters (Shelley Armsworth).

However, with the never-ending nuisance of school life, his rival Eddie Coogan, and bully Tiger Kelly, life can be tough for a young upstart - especially if there's fishing to be done!
