· If you get given this book, you are LUCKY.

* The author is a very modest fellow who would never make claims like these. But the publisher knows what he is talking about and stands by every single one of them, and, if anything, has downplayed how gloriously GRIN-INDUCING this book truly is.
'One of the most original children's books I've ever read' Philip Reeve
A boy and a bear go to sea, equipped with a suitcase, a ukulele and a comic book. They're not travelling very far, and it really shouldn't take long. But their journey takes a number of unexpected twists, and together they must face stormy seas, a terrifying sea monster and - once they start to feel peckish - the revolting remains of the Very Last Sandwich.
Will the Harriet withstand the violent lashing of the waves? Will the bear explain exactly where they're heading? And will anyone ever answer their message in a bottle?
'Very special' Guardian
