    2nd and later printings. Edited by Kazu Kibuishi. Story and art by Kazu Kibuishi, Jason Caffoe, Emily Carroll, Stuart Livingston, Johane Matte, Dave Roman, Rad Sechrist, and Raina Telgemeier. Cover by Kazu Kibuishi. Seven author/artists tie their scary or exhilarating nautical adventures to metaphorical underpinnings. Captain Ahab-like obsession with catching the big one leads a sailor into a cave that is really a giant mouth. One young castaway meets a crab ghost. Another meets someone she never expected to see: an older version of herself. A young island girl is lured to join tiki-masked celebrants who turn out to be dead. Beautifully drawn, each artist works in a different style, but all share humor, suspense, and a buoyant tone. Young readers will be entertained, and maybe a little scared, by this one-of-a-kind, alone-on-an-island tales of mystery and magic. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 128 pages, full color. Cover price $12.99.
