What is Gauge about?

Trouble is brewing in Scrubbly when the town council decides to demolish the old library clock and replace it with a modern one. Lucy is not very interested in the clock, but her mother is determined to save it. With help from Gauge, a magical timing dragon, and the ghost of Sir Rufus Trenchmore, they uncover a clever way to outwit the council. Together, they must protect Scrubbly’s historic timepiece before it is too late.
