# Just a Story - Hardcover

by **Jeff Mack** (Author)

**Reading is wild, dangerous... fantastic The possibilities are endless, the perils enormous--good thing it's just a story.**

A boy happens upon a discarded book that transforms a library into an escalating series of near misses and close encounters with dastardly pirates, a herd of scooter-riding elephants, a big blue whale, and is that an alien in an Elvis wig?

But surprise, he escapes without a scratch, because it's just a story...

With an exuberant art style reminiscent of newspaper comic strips, illustrator Jeff Mack brings imagination to life in this riotous tale about the power of reading.
