When Melle wakes up in the middle of the night, he finds a strange ball of wool sitting on the edge of his bed. He's certain he's seen it, but no one believes him—not even his father, a biologist. Still, Melle refuses to be deterred. He investigates and discovers there's more to it than anyone could have imagined…
