What if your dreams wouldn't stay in your head? Ted is an ordinary boy, until one magical night his pillow starts to hum with poetry. Suddenly, his dreams are no longer a jumble of thoughts, they are perfect, sparkling couplets and vivid, shimmering metaphors. It’s wonderful at first, but then the rhymes start to spill out. His breakfast cereal becomes "a milky lake, where sugary islands float," and his walk to the park transforms into a "map made of meter." This magical dream-map pulls him into a secret world he never knew existed: Rhymington, a magnificent city built entirely on poetry and sound.

There, he meets Luna, a quiet girl with a "Haiku Heart" who sees the world in three perfect lines, and Jasper, a sad jester who has lost his jingle. But a terrible shadow is falling over this wondrous land. A "Silent Spell" cast by the Grumpy King of Prose and his sneaky Prose Poachers is stealing all the poetry. The world is getting quieter, the vibrant colors are fading, and everything is slowly turning into a terrifying "Great Blank Page." With his new friends, Ted must find the courage to use his own words to fight the silence. Can he, Luna, and Jasper find the one word that can wake the world, restore the jingle, and bring back the symphony of rhymes before they are all erased forever?
