Salomon Slackwater and the Aquanauts

YOU MIGHT NOT REMEMBER IT, but in the year 2010 the entire United States of America sank into the Ocean. Everything is OK now, but back then, well, it was very soggy indeed. Men rode on the backs of whales in those days, a few Nazis came out of hiding to laugh at the country’s misfortune, and hundreds of millions of people went down... down... down... Or, at least, that is what author EDWARD L. DEBERRY would like you to believe. In SALOMON SLACKWATER AND THE AQUANAUTS, he tells the nonsensical story of a boy with "intelligence issues", a boy not like the rest of his family, who are themselves quite brainy. It’s this boy, who later becomes a man, reluctantly, who must--and does--save the country from a stinging saltwater death!
