Official synopsis Publisher
Dive into the latest adventure with Penny and friends in their hunt for the elusive ‘Moby Duck’! Mysteries, monsters and valuable lessons abound in this new middle grade graphic novel from the fantastic duo behind Dungeon Critters.
A year after Penny, K, and Luc rescued the Bawk-Ness Monster and a submarine full of cryptids from the nefarious Alvida Scales, they’ve reunited for what’s supposed to be a low-key trip to the seashore with K’s dad. K has big plans to follow in her great-aunt’s cryptid-hunting footsteps and track down the mysterious Moby Duck with her two best friends in tow, but there are a couple big problems with this plan! First of all, Penny’s also bringing a stranger along – a kid named “Jo” who likes anime and video games and other things that K thinks are super boring. And if that wasn’t bad enough, because of everything that went wrong on their last big trip together, K is forbidden from cryptid hunting of any kind! It’s a disaster all around!
Will K be able to salvage her big chance at finding Moby Duck? Maybe! Will she and her friends once again be kidnapped by a villainous member of the Scales family? Probably! Will aliens somehow be involved as they track down dangerous cryptids of the sea? Gosh, wouldn’t that be crazy?
