Jake's birthday list is longer than an anaconda and it definitely does not include socks or underwear. This year he wants a pirate, a dinosaur, a leopard, and a dragon. Luckily for Jake, his Auntie Lyn knows where to find such gifts, but Jake can't imagine such a place. When Auntie Lyn takes him to a bookstore and leaves him to sort through two piles of books—the boring books and the "okay" books—Jake discovers that they are not boring at all. In fact, they hold the key to fulfilling his gigantic birthday wish list.
