Young Tom, a chimney sweep, falls into a river and transforms into a "water-baby," beginning a fantastical moral education in an underwater world. Guided by mysterious fairies and reunited with Ellie, an upper-class girl, Tom embarks on adventures that teach him right from wrong. Through his journey, he must prove his moral worth and confront his cruel former master, ultimately earning redemption and a chance to return to human form.
