About this ebook
“Pint-sized characters face out-sized challenges with heart and wit in this heroic adventure. The winner: readers!”
— Sara Pennypacker, New York Times best-selling author of the Clementine series
“Garbage Island is a delight! Fred Koehler has created an intricately imagined world of inventive and courageous small animals, then set his two main characters spinning across it in a nonstop adventure that will have readers madly flipping pages to find out what happens next!”
— Bruce Coville, award-winning author of Jeremy Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher
“What an incredible world Fred Koehler weaves out of bits and pieces of floating trash and very human animals. You’ll have an action-packed time on Garbage Island!”
— Chris Grabenstein, #1 New York Times best-selling author
In this gripping adventure, a mouse and a shrew, lost at sea, try to navigate to their home in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Braving multiple dangers, they discover they have more in common than they ever could have
imagined.
Mr. Popli, the mouse Mayor of Garbage Island, is always at odds with Archibald Shrew, a brilliant but reckless inventor. When Garbage Island splits apart, they’re trapped together in Mr. Popli’s houseboat, desperate to
find their way back home. At first, they only argue, but when they face a perilous thunderstorm and a series of predators, they begin to work together and recognize—in themselves and in each other—strengths they didn’t
know they had. Nonstop action and deep emotion intertwine in this tale of opposites who discover that with bravery, creativity, and friendship, they can triumph over adversity. The story is further brought to life by original
black-and-white illustrations by the author.
