This was SUCH A GREAT READ!

Seriously, I felt like I was strapping in for a "three hour tour" only to find out that it was SO MUCH MORE. We're talking Disney's Jungle Cruise elevated exponentially to the next level of adventure! We're speaking of a captain that would even give old Sparrow a run for his money (no really, he'd probably have him running after money because he's tricky like that...whether intentional or not!). We're going on about an ADVENTURE with MR. ADVENTURE(son) himself, bursting at the seems with nautical wit, humorous hijinks, and downright dangerous stunts that while you're kissing the dry land you're walking on, you'll STILL be clutching the book and turning pages.

Captain Kevin Adventureson is ridiculously memorable...and definitely not hurting in the ego department! Dani and Mike are beyond resourceful...a good thing too seeing as their captain is a bit non-traditional. *ahem* They have to fend for themselves and do a bit of growing up in order to survive this trip...and just how that all comes to pass is equally exciting! The bad guys are full of surprises, and really, there's one surprise that is TOTALLY SURPRISING...and even some of the good guys are full of them too! We'll just sum it up as being good at keeping you on toes.

In the end, it's not AFTen that I get to be this punny in a review...or at it's close! Take it from me (no, really...take it! ), you'll want to catch the WAVE on this massive SHIPWRECK in the making. Between the fab CREW, fantabulous SAILORS TALE, and the unexpected turns to the STARBOARD side, you'll be laughing, hooting, hollering, and generally causing a ruckus this side of the HIGH SEAS while reading an ADVENTURE(son) you won't soon forget! There, how's that for some nautical wit? 😉
