If you go to a magical school, you learn to expect the unexpected--but when young students Peter and Harmony go abroad to study mythical creatures with Professor Sal A. Manderfin, they discover a whole new level of unpredictable. To pass their class (and avoid getting eaten), Peter and Harmony must win over a whole herd of quirky creatures, from a hippogriff who communicates through popular dance, to a sassy unicorn testing out her stand-up material, to a lovelorn griffin with a hoarding problem. Discover a new era of wizarding hilarity in this fun, fantastical parody.
