Ellis loves popcorn. No, she really loves popcorn. It's serious. So when her school and her dads ban all snack foods - including popcorn - Ellis won't listen. But when she tries to quietly sneak her favorite salty snack, one kernel refuses to pop. Loudly. Soon, the kernel has sprouted a face, arms, and legs! He's alive, his name is Popcorn Bob, and he is not in a good mood. He is hangry. Will Ellis be able to keep Bob a secret until she can get rid of him? (And after a few days with him, will she still want to?)

This is a story of friendship. This is a story of hope. It’s the story of an era that helped shape our country and define our times, told through one boy’s extraordinary journey through his own small patch of America. And it’s the story of a debt he can never repay to someone he knows only as The Bicycle Man.

Ellis, Dante, and Popcorn Bob are on an important top-secret mission in America. (Ellis’s dads are there too. But they don’t know about the mission.) When Popcorn Bob last escaped the clutches of Coraline Corn (the evil owner of Popcorn & Co.), she said that there are more live popcorn kernels in America—just like Bob! Bob can’t wait to meet his family. If they exist.

It’s harder than Ellis thinks to keep a sentient popcorn kernel a secret, because soon her friend and next-door neighbor, Dante, has spotted him. She can trust Dante, though, and it’s good timing, since they’re being tailed by both a bearded American and the owner of Popcorn & Co. It looks like the makers of Bob’s popcorn must want him back....
