This action-packed fantasy entails a young man who enters another world to help good triumph over evil. Jarell, an unlikely hero, would rather draw heroic goddesses and warriors in make-believe worlds than do his school work or play sports like his older brother. When he enters his cousin’s newly remodeled barbershop, he finds a portal into a fantastical world where his presence and courage are crucial to the future kingdom of Ulfrika. With the help of Kimisi she and Jarell set out on an adventure that involves the evil Ikala, wolves, hyenas, flying an aircraft, a sandstorm, and lava from Fire Mountain. Everyone believes that Jarell is the hero they’ve been waiting for. Can he meet the challenge?
