Together they do everything they can to save Faye, and get valuable support from Mira, whose knowledge of Scottish mythology is a great help. But Aleen is tormented by lovesickness, because she is still hopelessly in love with David. But he has been promised to Faye for a long time ... and it is Faye, of all people, who puts Aleen in grave danger out of jealousy.

10-year-old Clem is annoyed. He has to go on a class trip to the dusty local museum and on top of that, he is then forced to work in a team with hyperactive Bahira. Can it get any worse? Yes, it can!

The fact that a group of creepy strangers then chases the children and their unusual pet doesn’t exactly diminish the problems. Now the only solution is a secret trip to La Dragonera, the dragon island. And that’s where the real adventure begins for Clem, Bahira and the creature from another time ...

Here, chaos reigns supreme: Hakim moves Mrs. Meier’s car, sinking it in the school pond. Ewald drills a secret hole in the wall to the teachers’ lounge during the big break – with fatal consequences for the teachers! In this class, things rarely go as planned – and in the end, they are thick as thieves. So it’s only logical that they would even do a dangerous experiment …
