Description

"Not since Carroll's Alice has there been such a marvelous and incredible adventure."—Kirkus Reviews, starred review

Look closely at the map in your library, classroom, or home to discover eight fantastic letters: A-T-L-A-N-T-I-C! You'll be shocked at all the magic that one little word can hold. The farm boy Philemon knows better than anyone what the Atlantic promises; he tumbled down a well last year and fell out the other side onto the island of "A"! That time, Philemon barely escaped with his life. Now he must return to the Atlantic and search for the friend he left behind. His journey will take him deep into those little letters on your map—so deep, in fact, that he fears he might never see his farm again. What surprises await him on the mysterious island of "N"?
