The first in this gripping and action-packed adventure series, featuring an unlikely but immensely likeable hero, a cult of Evil Librarians intent on taking over the world - and a mysterious bag of sand! Who knew that libraries were centres for all evil? Alcatraz Smedry, practically the world champion of breaking things, never thought his most boring birthday present - a bag of sand - would get him into this much trouble. Yet now he's fleeing from evil Librarians, releasing dinosaurs to create a diversion in the Fiction section, and learning that clumsiness can be a powerful talent!
