Publisher Description

Drudgery is an island without imagination.

Painted in black, white, and shades of gray, even the rainbows are barely worth looking at.

Until one day…when Beau sees a flash of color, there and gone again.

Red, his mind tells him it's called, though he's never heard that word before.

Shocked, Beau seeks to understand what he's seen, leading him to the most wanted man on the island, a notorious storyteller named Kai Story.

What he discovers will send him on the wildest adventure of his life, a journey that will lead all the way to the source of the lost imagination: The Imagination Tree.
