Bookroo's summary
Persimmony Smudge's dull life takes a thrilling turn when she uncovers a secret: Mount Majestic is a sleeping giant's belly. With her friend Worvil, she must persuade the island's bickering residents to avoid waking the giant. Can they unite the islanders and avert catastrophe, or will the giant's awakening spell doom for all? Adventure, danger, and unexpected alliances await in this captivating tale.
From the publisher
Ten-year-old Persimmony Smudge lives a boring life on the Island in the Middle of Everything, but she longs for adventure. And she soon gets it when she overhears a life-altering secret and suddenly finds herself in the middle of an amazing journey. It turns out that Mount Majestic, the rising and falling mountain in the center of the island, is not really a mountain - it’s the belly of a sleeping giant! It’s up to Persimmony and her friend Worvil to convince the island’s quarreling inhabitants that a giant is sleeping in their midst and must not be awakened. The question is, will she be able to do it?
