In a drawer of lost things, one button built a perfect city. Then a sneeze destroyed everything.
Prism is a six-hole mother-of-pearl button with one rule: stillness is strength. He has organized the Lost Button Drawer into Precision Heights, a flawless miniature city ruled by the silent Order Stone.
But Blaze-a star-shaped sequin who cannot sit still-sneezes.
The Stone falls. Chaos erupts. Flopsy crashes into the supply cache. Rexie floods the Thimble River. Blaze runs in endless circles. And the Sticky Gang-torn sticker scraps from the dark Damp Crevice-invades.
Prism refuses help. He gives orders. He shouts. He stands alone on his pedestal as his perfect plan crumbles.
Then he sees his reflection in a puddle of tears-wobbly, unclear, real-and learns the hardest lesson of all:
A little mess is okay. And friends are better than perfect plans.
For readers who loved A Bug's Life and The Borrowers-but with buttons.
