Owen and Claire decide they should stay until they locate Blue, and that means Maisie has to go on her most exciting adventure yet--school! She's nervous, but quickly makes new friends, but also discovers there are six dinosaurs that need their protection. Unfortunately, there's also a predator hunting in the area. Is it Blue, or is there a more dangerous carnivore on the loose? Maisie will need all of her skills and bravery to save her new friends and the Yosemite Six"--Provided by publisher.
