"Firefly doesn t merely want to fly, she wants to touch the moon. Cricket doesn t merely want to sing about baseball, he wants to catch. When these two little creatures with big dreams wander out of Firefly Hollow, refusing to listen to their elders, they find themselves face-to-face with the one creature they were always told to stay away from... a giant. But Peter is a Miniature Giant. They ve always been told that a Miniature Giant is nothing but a Future Giant, but this one just isn t quite as big or as scary as the other Giants. Peter has a dream of his own, as well as memories to escape. He is overwhelmed with sadness, and a summer with his new unlikely friends Firefly and Cricket might be just what he needs. Can these friends dreams help them overcome the past?"--From publisher.
