Boeli T-Rex awakes in the Kingdom of Stars. His sister Mumi is still locked up in the Prison of Sleep. Or so it seems.

‘Mum’, Boeli T-Rex whispers. ‘Mum’, he repeats, a bit harder now. ‘Muuuuuuuum!’ Mumi awakes. ‘We have to be quiet’, Boeli says to Mumi. He helps her escape from the Prison of Sleep. ‘I’m scared’, Mumi says. ‘You don’t have to be scared’, Boeli T-Rex says. ‘I’m here, right? Your big brother.’ ‘OK’, Mumi says. Together they make a plan. An adventurous plan.
