Opis

Symby is terrified. You would be too if you were tiny and furry and had just arrived alone on a strange planet with creatures that seem to be more interested in eating you than making friends. Getting eaten would be a real shame, because Symby's got the ability to cure whatever ails them. Jody and Missy are scared too. They're teenagers in love, but their love is destined to end prematurely as their terminal diseases slowly take their toll. If only there were a magical cure that would keep their love alive forever... No matter how hard he tries, Spud just can't beat the grip of the bottle. He's been homeless for a long time now, having left his family behind when life's challenges overwhelmed him. He'd give anything to see his wife and son again, but he's pretty sure he's not going to be forgiven unless he gets his life back on track. To do that, he's going to need help, but from where? Snuffles, Jody's beagle, is getting on in years, as the pain in his joints keeps reminding him. He's owned Jody for as long as he can remember, but lately Jody's mother has been talking about "putting Snuffles down" to spare him his pain. Snuffles needs help, and fast. Right now, though, there's a tiny, furry creature crawling around in his backyard that appeared right after that weird green rock landed in his water bowl. Time for a snack? Symby is a magical, heartwarming fantasy filled with tales of first love, selflessness and redemption. Written in the whimsical, wondrous spirit of the Wizard of Oz, Symby is a tale for the ages- for all ages
