| Summary |
While trying to bury a shoe in the backyard, a young dog who lives with two humans and three cats is transported to a world filled with magic, adventure, and one giant, grumpy monster. |
|
"Melly loves to play games. All her cat housemates want to do, though, is take a nap. To get some peace and quiet, the troublemakers trick Melly into burying a shoe in the backyard. But the small prank turns into a big problem when she falls down the hole...and is magically transported to another world! Melly lands smack-dab in the middle of a scuffle between a group of knights and a huge monster. But she soon discovers that the grumpy giant isn't as scary as he looks. He's being hunted by a greedy king. One who has also been stealing from his people and locking them up in the dungeons. So although Melly is desperate to return home, she makes it her mission to help her new friend and save the kingdom. But how could someone so tiny defeat such a powerful foe? It may just take a game that only Melly can win!"--Jacket. |
