Hope and her friends Ruff, Buffasip, and Celeste are off on another quest. This time they’re in search of the Midnight Miracle flower—the final ingredient required to make a magical amulet that will lead Hope to her missing family. There’s only one problem—four actually—an Ogre King, Snaught and his three loyal subjects Fidiot, Ghunk, and Skrogg. But things are not all they appear to be in the Nuggrumph Forest, so you had better be prepared for plenty of action when you join Hope and the trio in another fantastic adventure.

When Hope's family mysteriously disappears, the young dragon finds herself alone in the world. She finds friends in the unlikeliest of creatures: a wolf named Ruff, and a Fenrir beast called Buffasip. Together the trio fights back against a group of nasty hunters who have been kidnapping the creatures of the Wandering Oak Forest for far too long. Join Hope, Ruff, and Buffasip on their exciting quest to save their home!
