The story is set on the mid 1940s on a Hebridean island o- Scotland.
Two words describe this book, love and dreams.
Two young children find themselves in a dilemma, living with their binge-drinking parents and the possibility of being taken into care.
After reading about the happy-go-lucky children in an orphanage far away, they decided to leave home to seek it out.
On their journey the children find themselves in a palace under Loch Ness - and there they release a trapped and chained monster.
To repay their kindness the monster decides take them to the orphanage, in Odessa.
It is a dangerous journey and would have many pitfalls.
The monster hoped to meet up with an old friend - a very old dinosaur.
The journey inspires great friendship and the greatest of sacrifice.
The love between two children and a monster come-dinosaur, two species with vast differences, shows the world that love has no bounds.
