Time is running out for Augustus Stitch. Born on the 29th of February, his birthday falls once every four years. While his friends live to be eighty, Augustus will die at the tender age of twenty.

Desperate to deny death, Augustus decides to make himself immortal. Old father time warns him not to meddle - time waits for no man, not even Augustus Stitch.

Or does it?

Will Augustus ignore this crazy old man who lives in a cuckoo clock in the sky? Will he really be the first boy in the world to live forever?
