It€s the hottest adventure yet! When Patrick takes a trip alone in the Imagination Station for science project research, things get a little explosive. First, his cousin Beth gets angry that she was left behind. Second, Eugene Meltsner sees red when he realizes that Patrick went to Pompeii in 79 A.D. a day before Mount Vesuvius erupts! It doesn€t help that the Imagination Station is on the blink and Whit has gone missing.
As Beth and Eugene frantically try to find a way fix the machine, Patrick learns a few things about volcanoes: it€s not the lava that comes first, it€s poisonous gas.
Will Eugene be able to reprogram the Imagination Station and send Beth to help Patrick? And what will happen to Patrick€s new friends€•a preacher, a looter, and a stray dog? Find out in the next adventure, Doomsday in Pompeii!
