The boy has some magical little friends that live in his garden. They lead his bike ride into a magical world where a dragon keeps a mirror preventing their wrightful owners from looking at it. The boy meets these people who have lost their identity as they cannot look into the mirror in order to know who they are. And so they stay in a state of low spirits from loss of hope and courage. So the brave boy agrees to recover the mirror and help them. It's a beautifully illustrated book with some scary but effective pictures which help in complementing the narrative and convey the emotions which make this a lovable book.
