Captain Monty Takes the Plunge

32 pp. | Kids Can | October, 2017 | Trade ISBN 978-1-77138-626-5 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Liz Starin. Fox Monty the Malodorous is known for his formidable pirating skills, but he's secretly too scared of water to bathe (hence his nickname) let alone swim. When a giant octopus grabs Monty's mermaid heartthrob, Meg, he selflessly jumps into action (and the ocean) to save her. The comic tale's expressive mixed-media illustrations humorously depict the undersea rescue and Monty's subsequent swimming lessons.
