The Unlikely Adventures of Mabel Jones
Kids, students, and life-long readers,
Mabel Jones has done THE DEED. This one deed opens the door for the pirate crew of the Feroshus Maggot (Yes, that is how it is spelled) to capture her and force her to serve as one of the crew. And what is THE DEED? You will have to read to find out.
But this is no ordinary crew. The captain is a ferocious wolf bent on the quest to capture all five parts of the hidden "X" to find the forbidden treasure spoken of by his lost father. The rest of the crew is made of talking animals from a silent orangutang to a thieving lemur to a crocodile that enjoys nothing more than amputating appendages. Mabel Jones is in for quite an adventure as she is forced to walk the greasy pole in the fir moments of meeting the crew.
The hunt is on and crew must find the four most despicable pirates to take back the pieces and find the treasure. This story is filled with adventure and humor. The narrator telling the story has quite the voice jumping in and out of character. There is also a connection to Geronimo Stilton as the author is very creative with the fonts and placement of the words and sentences.
If you are looking for a light read that you can enjoy some adventure and a good laugh, this is the book for you.
