Every resident of the planet Yipsmix has synesthesia--they don't just
hear sounds; they see and taste them, too. On this unusual planet, poor
Jaq Rollop must save his family's farm. To do so, Jaq is forced to sell
his beloved pet and only friend. Trusting and na.ve, Jaq gets swindled
into trading his pet for a seemingly worthless key. But then something
very strange happens. The key leads Jaq through a wormhole to a
terrifying and magical land full of riches, overwhelming sensations, and
giants. The name of this frightening land? Earth. This clever
middle-grade fantasy will appeal to fans of the Sisters Grimm, A Tale
Dark & Grimm, and the Land of Stories series.
