A magical, wondrous novel by the author of The Peculiar Tale of the Tentacle Boy- about a boy who longs to swim, and a town with a mysterious past ... Casper has water in his blood, his spirit, and especially in his giant webbed toes. His greatest ambition is to be the youngest person ever to swim the channel. The trouble is, his mum and dad are determined to 'protect him' from the allure of the waves (whatever that means!) and time is running out.
