Plot summary

Nobody at Gage Dobson's new school will befriend him, and the bullies single him out. His mother, Cathy, is dating Dr. Elliott Carlisle, a man the boy dislikes as much as Carlisle dislikes him, and Andrea, the girl he adores, does not appear to know he exists. His only friend is Professor Cruikshank, a man everyone else dismisses as a crackpot. Exploring an abandoned mine, Gage comes across a creature that introduces itself as Munchie. He runs home, frightened, and finds it has followed him there. Munchie announces that he commands magic and promises to sort out the boy's troubles.
