Publisher's Synopsis
"?In the middle of the city, between two tall, new buildings, stands a house thats not so tall and not so new. The horses and carriages that used to carry people up and down the street are gone, but the house is still there, lying in shadow, almost hidden. The house belongs to Jacabeean artist, adventurer, and explorer. He has traveled all over the world and brought many things back to his home. Every room is filled with treasures and artifacts from every corner of the earth. Paintings, drawings, and sketches done by Jacabee himself hang on the walls and fill dozens of sketchbooks. Jacabee isnt home now, but hes left three friends to look after his house. Dooley, Abby, and Baldy love this house as much as Jacabee does. They want to take care of it. The house is a magical place, where it seems as if anything can happen.
