Roar is a land of dragons, mermaids, unicorns, ninja wizards and where anything they can imagine can be real. But when they return there's no time for exploring, because a message arrives from their scarecrow enemy, Crowky. WHAT'S IN THE BOX? The Box would always contain the things that scared the twins most - and if Crowky gets hold of it, Roar could be in more danger than ever. Soon they find themselves on another thrilling adventure, accompanied by old friends and new faces and seeing parts of Roar they'd almost forgotten. But will they get to the box before Crowky does? And if it opens, what will they see?<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>The imaginary world they created has been waiting for them to come back.</strong></p> <p>Twins Arthur and Rose created the magical world of Roar when they were very young, and until recently, they'd all but forgotten it exists.

This narrative's sheer inventiveness marks it as distinct. The text and Mantle's illustrations go wild with creativity. A sweet adventure and a paean to imagination and childhood innocence.--<em>Kirkus Reviews</em><br><br>Mantle's whimsical black-and-white illustrations enhance this playful, <em>Peter Pan</em>-like tale of sibling rivalry and affection. A series starter with heart.--<em>Booklist</em><br>
