About the title
A group of teenagers decides to explore a nearby forest and discovers strange tracks and glowing goo there. Jake loves experiments, so he immediately collects samples and brings them home. Planning to study them in the morning, the boy falls asleep, but at dawn a little surprise awaits him: a tiny dinosaur is running around on his desk, squeaking plaintively. The funny creature quickly becomes attached to the boy and, sensing his care, starts growing at an incredible rate. At this pace he won't be able to hide the little animal for long, and that will lead to terrible consequences. Beyond the forest lies a military base where an enterprising general was planning to bury radioactive waste, and the appearance of a monster in the area would trigger an investigation, so it must be eliminated immediately.
