Kid Vs. Squid — Greg Van Eekhout
SEA, SAND, AND SHRUNKEN HEADS
Thatcher Hill is bored stiff. Fake mermaids and strange mummies don't seem as exciting when you have to dust them every day -- but that's just what Thatcher is stuck doing for his summer job at his uncle's seaside museum of curiosities.
Then a mysterious girl steals an artifact from the museum, and suddenly Thatcher's on an adventure that takes him from the top of the Ferris wheel to the bottom of the sea. He soon learns that she is a princess of the lost city of Atlantis. Her people have been cursed by an evil witch to drift at sea all winter and wash up on shore each summer for an even more terrible fate -- working the midway games and food stands on the boardwalk. Can Thatcher help save them before he, too, succumbs to the witch's curse?
