Synopsis

In this book, the author found a very clever way to explain why people hardly ever see Mew. It turns out there's a whole group of Mews living in the heavens, but they have one cardinal rule: Don't show yourself to a human unless you have a good reason! However, one Mew who's shown himself to kids lots of times has a dilemma when a kid he's recently shown himself to is ridiculed by his friends when he says he saw a Mew. However, the other Mews realize that sometimes it's more important to help a friend than obey the rules, and they come up with a plan to help the little boy.

Blurb

Mew is the rarest and most mysterious Pokemon of all. In this book, a boy sees Mew, but no one believes him. Touched by the boy's sadness, Mew hatches a plan to turn the skeptics into believers.
