Meet Huxley, an irrepressible koala with BIG ideas, and his best friend, Flapjack, a rather jumpy penguin. Flapjack would rather stay at home, but for Huxley, each new day sparkles with possibility and the chance of adventure!

Huxley and Flapjack: Trouble at Sea takes our duo on a trip to the seaside where they meet Whizz, who invites them aboard his submarine to search for the shipwreck of the Isabella. Huxley is excited to go deep-sea diving, convinced there will be treasure to find, but Flapjack can't help worrying. What if something BIG and FISHY finds them first…

“...bursting with energy and adventure, sure to capture the imagination - and hearts - of its readers.” – ReadingZone

“An engaging series for early readers who love a jolly tale of friendship and adventure.” – Irish Examiner
