Summary:
A tale about the power of generosity and love, and the suffering a community endures when they vanish. Stone-in-the-Glen, once a beautiful town, has fallen on hard times. Fires, floods, and other disasters have taken away their library, school, park, and even their sense of community. The townspeople place their trust in the Mayor, a charming figure who claims he alone can help. After all, he is a renowned dragon slayer. (At least, no one has seen a dragon when he's around.) Only the clever children of the Orphan House and the kind-hearted Ogress on the town's edge can truly see how dire the situation is. One day, a child from the Orphan House goes missing. At the Mayor's suggestion, suspicion falls on the Ogress. The Orphans know this can't be true: the Ogress, with the help of a flock of loyal crows, secretly delivers gifts to the people of Stone-in-the-Glen. But how can the Orphans reveal the Ogress's goodness to a community unwilling to listen? And how can they expose the true villain among them?
