This bittersweet coming-of-age tale is the story of every childs secret friend and confidant. Lyn is bored. All the activities he usually enjoys no longer seem interesting. With nothing to do, he wanders into a strange pet shop where he buys a mysterious fuzzy seed. Planted with love, trust, and a dream, the seed grows into a friendly, giant creature. Lyn and Fuzzy become great friends, and even plain everyday games are fun to play again.
