Ellis loves popcorn.
No, she REALLY loves popcorn.
It's serious.

So when her school and her dads ban all snack foods-- INCLUDING POPCORN-- Ellis won't listen. But when she tries to quietly sneak her favorite salty snack, one kernel refuses to pop. LOUDLY. Soon, the kernel has sprouted a face, arms, and legs! He's alive, his name is Popcorn Bob, and he is NOT in a good mood. He is HANGRY. Will Ellis be able to keep Bob a secret until she can get rid of him? (And after a few days with him, will she still want to?)
