Tom is somewhat of a serious fellow and spends much of his time alone, not allowed to do many of the things his schoolmates do. He isn't unhappy, just a bit bored. Until the night a full moon shines through his bedroom window and he sees something in a shadow, something he's never seen before. Tom's life is never the same after that. He begins learning many surprising things, and his days are filled with music, stories and adventure - and best of all, the magic of laughter and friendship. A fun read-aloud book!
