An isolated cottage on the rugged coastline of North Devon is the home of Joe, a 12-year-old boy, his mum, and his two younger sisters. The property was owned by his late grandfather, and its isolation is wearing on Joe. Bored, with nothing to do but watch his sisters play with their dolls, Joe longs for excitement.
The boy finds an old wooden box with a roll of parchment inside, showing a map of the coastline and some old writing. A new world then opens up for him, as he sees dragons flying overhead and a sea monster that comes to his rescue.
Joe's sisters believe in this new fantasy world filled with fairies, unicorns, and a little green man seeking their help in finding some lost stones.
A trip to the British Museum locates the stones, which are then reunited with a dragon. Following a fierce battle, Joe's adventure takes him through a time portal and a reunion with his deceased grandfather. Life is no longer boring for Joe.
Author Bio:
Lesley Glover grew up in the Midlands in Coventry, and then moved to London and to Kent. "My next move took me to Devon, and I now live about 10 minutes away from the area of Hangman's Hill that is mentioned in the book." Stuck in traffic driving home from Devon, "I began thinking about the story to relieve the boredom and it grew from there." This is her third book.
