Archie Atkins is determined to learn everything he can before school starts. He's about to enter first grade, and he certainly doesn't want the other kids to laugh at him for what he doesn't know.
When he arrives with his family for their annual visit to their summer cottage on the Point at Lake Nabu, he discovers an abandoned cat, the sarcastic Talmadge Tinsley, living in their summerhouse.
But Talmadge is horrified of children and uses his uncanny ability to summon an all-knowing dragon named Elirteal Ely Derkein to frighten Archie and his sister Harriet away. But the cat's plan is spoiled when Ely refuses to get rid of the youngsters as long as they have questions. And Archie has many, many questions.
Talmadge eventually warms up to the children, and together they learn about Whooshers and Whomples, the importance of dreams, and lots of other bits of everyday wisdom.
For the young and young at heart, Archie's Magical Summer is a whimsical book of lighthearted stories about an eager boy's magical summer of learning from unlikely sources.
