      PROLOGUE

      These days my cat Sassafras and I are always desperately hoping we’ll hear our barn doorbell.

      I know most people are excited to hear their doorbell ring. It might mean a present or package delivery, or a friend showing up to play. But our doorbell is even more exciting than that. Because it’s a magic doorbell. When it rings, it means there’s a magical animal waiting outside our barn. A magical animal who needs our help.

      My mom’s been helping them basically her whole life. And now I get to help too . . .

      CHAPTER 1

      LOOKING UNDERWATER

      A shadow caught my eye and I ran to the window. Was that –? No, it was just a crow. I sighed.

      Our baby dragon friend, Marshmallow, had returned to his life in the forest weeks ago. But I was hoping he’d come visit again soon. Really soon. The sooner the better.

      I sighed and rolled a giant tube back and forth on our dining room table with one hand while I searched the sky for Marshmallow. Just in case.

      Ow! Hey, that’s my hand! I yelped.

      Sassafras must have been aiming for the rolling tube, which he probably thought was now alive. But his needle-sharp claws landed on my poor hand instead.

      You’re not even supposed to be on the table, stinker, I said as I lowered him to my lap.

      Meow! he complained. He slipped his front paws onto the table one at a time and looked up to see if I’d noticed.

      I had, but I decided to let him stay and watch. Just a little longer before we go to the stream, Sass. With my underwater viewer, I’ll be able to see all the bugs at the bottom of the stream really well. I’ll be the best stream bug hunter ever.

      Argh! The piece of plastic wrap I’d grabbed from the kitchen wasn’t big enough to fit over the end of the tube. I picked up Sassafras and set him on my chair. I patted his head. "I’ll be right back and then we can go."

      I pulled the plastic wrap out of the kitchen drawer and heard a loud yowl from the dining room.

      Meeoooooooowww!

      I shook my head. That silly cat. I checked the dining room, but I didn’t see Sassafras anywhere.

      Thunk.

      I looked down at the floor. Something moved. The plastic tube for my underwater viewer was now under the table. How did that get there? I bent down to pick it up, and it turned toward me. My cat’s face peered at me from inside the tube.

      "Oh, Sassafras! You’re not supposed to shove your
