When Ben Silverstein is sent to the rundown town of Buttonville to spend
the summer with his grandfather, he's certain it will be the most boring
vacation ever. That is, until his grandfather's cat brings home what
looks like . . . a baby dragon?
Amazed, Ben enlists the help of Pearl Petal, a local girl with an eye
for adventure. They take the wounded dragon to the only veterinarian's
office in town -- Dr. Woo's Worm Hospital. But as Ben and Pearl discover
once they are inside, Dr. Woo's isn't a worm hospital at all -- it's
actually a secret hospital for imaginary creatures.
After Ben accidentally leaves the hospital's front door unlocked, a
rather large, rather stinky, andvery hairy beast escapes into
Buttonville. Ben and Pearl are tasked with retrieving the runaway
creature, and what started out as an ordinary summer becomes the story
of a lifetime.
Suzanne Selfors delivers a wild journey filled with mythical creatures
and zany adventures that are anything but imaginary.
