PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Summary:
It’s Casey’s first night on the job as night watchperson. Goliath is terrorizing everyone, but David is too busy writing his Psalms. And Samson’s donkey jawbone has been stolen, and he is out of his mind chasing after Balaam’s talking donkey, Blatherskite, who would rather keep his own jawbone attached. Treasure hunter Tuck Avalancheski is raiding the museum in search of the Lost Ark. Heroes and villains abound! Can Casey restore order to the museum before it is too late?
