About The Book

Three kids. One pirate ship.

An adventure no one
saw coming.

What begins as an ordinary bus ride becomes the start of an unimaginable adventure: a pirate ship on the open sea, treasure maps leading to mysterious islands, sword fights with a dangerous old captain, and friendships that prove the things that make you different might just make you extraordinary.

On his first day at a new school in Brooklyn, Puddles meets two kids, Peanut Butter and Pickles, who understand him in ways no one ever has. Puddles sees the world differently. He doesn’t speak the way other people do, and the words they say don’t always make sense to him. But with two friends at his side, he’s about to discover that being different is exactly what makes him a hero.
