Evil boss The Pitbull has wasted nine months waiting for the dragon’s egg he stole from Flynn and Paddy’s paradise island to hatch. But when he discovers it’s nothing more than an egg-shaped rock, he flies into a terrible rage and returns, hell-bent on revenge. How will Flynn and Paddy ever be able to stop him this time?
