1888PressRelease -Familiar faces from Doubloon! return for more danger and excitement in southwest
Florida.
INDIANAPOLIS – Adventure remains at the heart of Bruce Rougraff’s latest young adult novel Tarpon!. In the
sequel to his first book, Doubloon! Tommy and his family return to southwest Florida to continue the fun, this
time with some tarpon fishing. But the trip turns into a misadventure in the blink of an eye.
While out on the boat, Tommy finds himself propelled into a strange and terrifying new world – the world of
legendary pirate Jose Gasparilla. Encountering danger at every turn, Tommy discovers the real origins of an
old coin and an ancient curse. But before he can find his way home with his newfound knowledge, he must
face intense pirate battles, shark and vicious wild animals. Luckily, Tommy meets a ragtag group of kids who
learn that they can overcome almost anything by working as a team.
“This book is really for the child in all of us who dreams of chasing pirate treasure,” said Bruce. “I hope that
adventure stories like Tarpon! will inspire young readers to continue to pick up books for the wonders they hold
inside.”
Amid the excitement, Tarpon! also contains important life lessons for children about friendship and forgiveness.
The book is intended for readers ages 8 to 12. Tarpon! can be purchased online through SDP Publishing,
Amazon, Barnes and Noble and other retailers.
