Enter a secret wonderland in the sky where Japanese legends come to life. Twelve-year-old Jonty desperately wants an adventure but he knows it's unlikely when he's stuck at home for the entire summer. But then he meets a talking bonobo in the forest at the back of his house who invites him to enter a magical world behind a Japanese Memory gate. There, he will get to collect wild memories from the time his gramps was a famous primatologist - and soon, his adventure begins. Behind the gate lies a world far more enchanting than back home. In a world filled with mischievous Japanese beings called yokai, Jonty must battle to collect the memories in a series of hair-raising trials. But there is an evil sky pirate crew on board a ship who are hellbent on destroying the memories for good - and they have bows and arrows. Can Jonty battle the pirate crew before time runs out and the wadokei watch-clock strikes?
