There's something fishy going down in Shadyside, but Team Pom are on the case...
Oddballs Agnes, Roberta and Ruby band together to create their very own synchronized swimming club to rival any in Queens, New York. But on their mission to win both trophies and snacks, they stumble upon a lonely stranger living in their pool. Could he be the key to their superstardom? Or will he lead them into the clutches of the sinister duo in bowler hats?
Praise for SQUID HAPPENS:
'Madcap and joke-filled, Roxas’s (Our Skin) graphic novel debut expressively illustrates nonstop action and slapstick humor while grounding it in a recognizably depicted version of Queens and clearly delineating the primary cast members’ personalities. The ethnically inclusive team and their friendship dynamic is a highlight of this joyfully absurd, pleasingly overstuffed story, and while “little boss” Roberta basks in the spotlight, Agnes and Ruby also make themselves felt."
- Publisher's Weekly
