Sold for $50 to the Gogans, an abusive foster family, troubled 9-year-old orphan Pete and his secret fire-breathing clumsy friend Elliott the dragon summon up the courage to run away, only to wind up in the sleepy fishing town of Passamaquoddy. There, the cheerful lighthouse keeper Lampie and his kind-hearted daughter Nora decide to take Pete in as unscrupulous charlatan Dr. Terminus and his sidekick Hoagy search for him with their own plans. Now, against the backdrop of rampant superstition, can Pete and Elliott escape from the evil Gogans's clutches and the scheming quack? In the end, will Nora ever believe that Pete's rotund green-hued guardian is indeed real?
