"When a lonely dragon follows a trail of princess tears, a beautiful friendship is born. They march and sing, roar and whisper, hide and seek, then settle into snug companionship at bedtime"--

Once there was a girl, a very little girl. And there was a dragon, a very biggle dragon they were friends, evermore. One day, they play a game of hide-and-seek...But, oh, where can little girl be?

Best of friends Dragon and Girl dream of sailing away to the farthest-far-away, so the pair set out, spending a year and a day searching for the faraway place.

When the neighborhood bully starts following Willy, Lucy, and Kyle around and acting goofy, they suspect that he's been abducted by aliens until Scarface the parrot presents another possibility.
