A dinosaur detective in the land of unwanted ideas battles trauma, anxiety, and the first serial killer of imaginary friends.
Most ideas fade away when we're done with them. Some we love enough to become real. But what about the ones we love, and walk away from?
Tippy the triceratops was once a little girl's imaginary friend, a dinosaur detective who could help her make sense of the world. But when her father died, Tippy fell into the Stillreal, the underbelly of the Imagination, where discarded ideas go when they're too real to disappear. Now, he passes time doing detective work for other unwanted ideas - until Tippy runs into The Man in the Coat, a nightmare monster who can do the impossible: kill an idea permanently. Now Tippy must overcome his own trauma and solve the case, before there's nothing left but imaginary corpses.

You know you’ve got a delicious book on hand when you realize you can’t say anything about it online or in person without spoiling the delight of discovery for someone else.
Tyler Hayes did an incredible job of inventing worlds within worlds, some slyly referencing things we already know, and some wholly new and gorgeous.
It’s my favorite of all the books I’ve listened to in the past year.
James Fouhey’s reading is the best I’ve ever heard. He’s amazingly versatile, capturing hard-boiled but cuddly Detective Tippy, the eagle Freedom Frieda, very young imaginary friends, and inscrutable ones.
(For another Fouhey fix, check out “Puffs” on Amazon.)
Delightful, Heart-Tugging, and Inventive!
