  |Book description|

 

Deep underground, the Minimoys are waiting...for a champion.

Arthur's grandfather disappeared four years ago. All he left behind are his notebooks full of stories about little-known African tribes -- including the Minimoys, a miniature people who are all less than one inch tall.

But the Minimoys can't possibly be real...can they?

Arthur is about to find out, as he uncovers a hidden message that catapults him on an adventure wilder than he had ever imagined. In just three days, he must find a way to the land of the Minimoys, recover a stolen treasure, battle an invading force of mosquito-riding warriors, defeat an evil wizard, win the heart of a very independent princess -- and somehow get back home again. It seems like an impossible task, but as he'll discover along the way, sometimes the littlest heroes can make the biggest difference....
