<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Includes a sneak peek at the next adventure in the series, 'The lonely lake monster.'<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>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? <p/>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. <p/>After Ben accidentally leaves the hospital's front door unlocked, a rather large, rather stinky, and<i>very</i> 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. <p/>Suzanne Selfors delivers a wild journey filled with mythical creatures and zany adventures that are anything <i>but</i> imaginary. <br>This book includes bonus writing, art, and science activities that will help readers discover more about the mythological creatures featured in <i>The Sasquatch Escape</i>. These activities are designed for the home and the classroom. Enjoy doing them on your own or with friends! <p/><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>* From the first dragon sighting, readers will be thoroughly entertained with this hijinks-filled adventure story.
