| Publisher Description: CONRAD is not like other boys. He doesn't like baseball or ice cream or messy rooms. Some kids think he's "weird". But Conrad doesn't care. He likes what he likes. And what he likes most of all is using his extra special imagination to find out-of-the ordinary, "you'd never believe this," objects to add to his collections.
And no place offers more opportunities to find cool and curious things than Hong Kong, a land said to be visited by pirates and dragon-gods. It's in this place full of adventurous possibilities that we find our favorite collector.
