Max, who fancies himself as a bit of a secret agent, is in the middle of a full scale stand-off with his friends when all of a sudden he's struck by an asthma attack and finds it very difficult to breath. Max has never had an asthma attack before and has no idea what is happening to him. Fortunately, the Medikidz whisk Max off the scene and to Mediland to help him get to grips with what's going on!
Pump, Chi, Skinderella, Gastro, Axon, and their trusty robot Abacus, are a group of superheroes who each have their own extraordinary abilities and characters to ensure that their particular brand of edutainment is always medically informative and easy to understand!
Join Max as the Medikidz take him on an attention-grabbing tour of Mediland - a distant planet that bears a striking similarity to the human body. The Medikidz take Max on a journey right inside the lungs in order to help him understand what exactly goes on inside these organs that can trigger an asthma attack. Along the way he meets the oversensitive immune system army defending his body and by the end of his visit he knows just how to be prepared for the next attack.
