Synopsis

Max longs for a pet, but his parents are hesitant. Puppies chew, parrots screech, and sharks have too many teeth. When they dismiss his idea of a dragon, claiming they don't exist, Max settles for a pet worm. However, this worm begins to develop spikes and breathe smoke. Could it be that dragons do exist after all?
