Life in the valley isn't getting any easier for the Bones and their newfound friends, while--back at the farm--Fone Bone and Thorn are troubled by strange dreams.

When a terrifying dragon attacks the small towns of the Northern Valley, a young Princess Rose (known later as Gran'ma Ben) must defeat it. The beast is actually the ancient evil, the Lord of the Locusts, and while Rose faces danger with honor, her elder sister, Princess Briar, follows a more sinister path. An unforgettable story with beautiful, sweeping artwork, this prequel explores the fateful beginnings of the epic BONE saga. -- from Amazon.
