When Anforth the raccoon and his friends went exploring a drowned human city they weren't expecting to find floating rocks that explode, a raccoon professor bent on diving to the ocean bottom, a crashed sky-sausage, and more! Anforth begins to suspect that the creatures like him--intelligent animals the humans left behind long ago--are less alone in the world than they thought. Are there still humans on Earth? Or something else? Full of adventure on, under, and above the sea, this second book in the Inner Islands Trilogy will delight young readers of all ages, and is lavishly illustrated by Hilary Farmer in her inimitable style!
