Nine-year-old Katerina doesn't feel like she fits into the world. Until the day she and her older brother Joshua are transported to a magical garden. It doesn't take them long to realize this isn't like their mother's garden. For a start Mom's garden doesn't have a panther or gorilla wandering through the carrots.
Suddenly Katerina will find out just how special she really is, as she fights to save her new friends from hunters, zoologists, and singing rats.
Because in the end, they are the last best hope for the future.
