When library page Jordan Young falls asleep in the children's section of T. Middleton Nightingale City Library, she misses the initial transformation of the library and wakes up to find herself in the land of Lilliput, where the tiny people are fighting over how to crack an egg and a friendly giant from Brobdingnag is looking for her giant mischievous monkey.

At T. Middleton Nightingale City Library, when the old, broken clock strikes twelve, the library is transformed into something out of an author's mind--and today the volunteer pages find themselves in the middle of Edgar Allan Poe's imagination where monsters lurk, and a raven is telling them to find Lenore if they want to restore the library to normal.
