Tom wants to see a dragon. And his Granddad wants to make one. But neither of them are prepared for the consequences when they accidentally spill Granddad's special growth formula on the ground. Insects, grown to giant-size, start to emerge, a few only at first, then more and more...a huge, swarming, mass of them. Now Tom, along with farmer's daughter, Kate, must battle against the giant bugs to save Kate's parents. They need help...big help. The kind of help a dragon can provide.... There's a big blob in here—several of them in fact, and more giant ants than you can shake a stick at. There's also a definitely mad scientist, some plucky kids, a newt with big plans, and a pony. But mostly it's about the bugs. Big bugs. On the rampage. What's not to like?
