Description: Glory may be just a little kid but she's in big trouble - when she opens a locked book she finds in an old trunk, a mysterious stranger jumps out!  "I am the Rain King, the Lord of Tears, the Master of Sorrows, the Commander of the Darkness in your soul!"  And Glory is the one responsible for releasing him from his prison and setting him free in the world again!  Before she can stop him, he kidnaps Pete and disappears back into the book.  To rescue Pete, Glory and her friends must follow and soon find themselves jumping from story to story - battling pirates in "Treasure Island," helping young Arthur pull the sword from the stone in "Le Morte D'Arthur," facing down bank robbers in "Praire Rustlers" and even becoming bugs!  Can they save Pete, not to mention the world, from this dangerous monster or will he cast his evil spell over us all?  A funny, chilling and imaginative play with an exciting climax.
