Publisher's Synopsis
Do the Minimoys really exist? Arthur has read all about the African tribe in his grandfatherÆs notebooks, but he can hardly believe they are less than an inch tall . . . Until one day he discovers a secret message and a map to the land of the Minimoys, hidden by his vanished grandfather, which sets him on a wild adventure. Arthur has three days to discover the Minimoys, recover stolen treasure, fight a force of mosquito-riding warriors, defeat an evil wizard and return to save the family home. All the more difficult if you have been shrunk to the size of a Minimoy . . . This in the first exciting part of the Minimoys adventure, by the acclaimed writer and director Luc Besson. Both books are being made into a film, released in 2006.
