Ten-year-olds Ben Silverstein and Pearl Petal have had quite a busy summer as apprentices of Dr. Woo, veterinarian for imaginary creatures. Together, they've encountered all sorts of magical beasts -- a sasquatch, a lake monster, a dragon, a unicorn, a griffin, and even a leprechaun!
When a swarm of fairies creates chaos in Buttonville, it's up to Pearl and Ben to catch the mischievous creatures. But with know-it-all Victoria Mulberry acting suspicious, it will be a challenge! Can they protect the townspeople and keep the fairies safe? And what is Dr. Woo up to?
In this thrilling finale to the Imaginary Veterinary series, Suzanne Selfors delivers an incredible adventure, filled with twists, turns, and tons of fun that is anything but imaginary!
