Summary
A dinosaur detective in the land of unwanted ideas battles trauma, anxiety, and the first serial killer of imaginary friends.
Most ideas fade away when we're done with them. Some we love enough to become real. But what about the ones we love, and walk away from?
Tippy the triceratops was once a little girl's imaginary friend, a dinosaur detective who could help her make sense of the world. But when her father died, Tippy fell into the Stillreal, the underbelly of the Imagination, where discarded ideas go when they're too real to disappear. Now, he passes time doing detective work for other unwanted ideas - until Tippy runs into The Man in the Coat, a nightmare monster who can do the impossible: kill an idea permanently. Now Tippy must overcome his own trauma and solve the case, before there's nothing left but imaginary corpses.

A fantastically original book
The concept of this book is very fresh and original - a combination of a traditional gritty detective novel with both the fun and the dark side of the imagination. Tippy is a loveable protagonist and the story is engaging. Characters like Big Business and Miss Mighty simply add to the strangeness and fun. james Fouhey, the narrator, did a spectacular job. If you like detective novels, or if you have a very active imagination, this one is for you. I thoroughly enjoyed it and would read it again and again - a new favourite.

I'm not crying
This book is so good,it wasn't exactly what I was expecting it was darker and sadder but brilliant and cute and hopeful. It's going in my favourites list.
Great narrator,he had to do lots of strange voices and they all seemed real.
