Description


In this companion to the first hilarious Teen Boat! book, bestselling author Dave Roman (Astronaut Academy) and cartoonist John Green (InvestiGators) deliver high school and high seas drama with a boatload of laughs.

Teen Boat has always felt different from the other kids, which makes sense, since he’s the only one who can transform into a yacht.

Now, just before his high school graduation, he embarks on an epic quest of self-discovery. He learns of a mysterious city called Boatlantis, where boats are at the top of the social ladder. Can it be true? Has he finally found the place where a half boy/half boat belongs? Or will he always be torn between two worlds?

“While I am not the John Green who illustrated this book, I am a John Green who ABSOLUTELY LOVES the unadulterated brilliance that is Teen Boat!” —John Green, author of The Fault in Our Stars

The ANGST of being a Teen—the THRILL of being a Boat! For more laughs, don't miss the first book, Teen Boat!
