Synopsis
What's this book about? That depends on who you ask. Our humble narrator thinks he's got a great story for you, but he barely begins before he's interrupted . . . by a scallywag pirate with a thrilling legend of mermaids and sea monsters Soon an entire cast of colorful characters--including a hungry dinosaur, an alien bent on world domination, and a heroic knight--derails the boy's saga. Everyone has a tale to tell--but if they can all get on the same page, this might turn out to be the best story ever
