Mia loves to draw and has a vivid imagination. Her imagination takes her everywhere. She draws Pookey on a piece of paper. Scared of a lightning storm overhead she flees downstairs to her father. A brilliant blue bolt reaches through the window and zaps the piece of paper, bringing Pookey to life. Mia and Pookey, a half pig half mouse creature become the best of friends. Pookey shares a secret with Mia. He has a magical tail that shrinks her down to his size. Together they go on a journey through a vast desert, passed the Kingdom of Pharoahs towards the ocean. They go camel back riding and flying on a genie's magic carpet. They explore sunken pirate ships and hide from tooth filled sharks. Will they escape from the shark before they run out of breath? A magical story full of friendship and imagination.
