The Unlikely Adventures of Mabel Jones by Will Mabbitt - 290 pages
Mabel Jones has been kidnapped by pirates from a world occupied only by animals. Now the only way home is to find the lost pieces of "X" that will open a portal back to her home.
I picked this up to listen to after finding out Will Mabbitt had written a chapter book for kids. He is the author of my favorite picture book of this year -- I Can Only Draw Worms. This book was hilarious. It is narrated by Toby Jones who has the perfect tones of sarcasm and over-emoting for the story. I will definitely be recommending this book for kids to read.
