Bookroo's summary

Philemon, a farm boy, once fell through a well into the magical island of 'A' in the Atlantic. Now, he must return to rescue a friend left behind. As he ventures deeper into the mysterious letters on the map, he faces the fear of never returning home. What secrets lie on the island of 'N'? Will Philemon find his friend, or will the magic of the Atlantic keep him forever?

From the publisher

“Not since Carroll’s Alice has there been such a marvelous and incredible adventure.”–Kirkus Reviews, starred review Look closely at the map in your library, classroom, or home to discover eight fantastic letters: A-T-L-A-N-T-I-C! You’ll be shocked at all the magic that one little word can hold. The farm boy Philemon knows better than anyone what the Atlantic promises; he tumbled down a well last year and fell out the other side onto the island of “A”! That time, Philemon barely escaped with his life. Now he must return to the Atlantic and search for the friend he left behind. His journey will take him deep into those little letters on your map–so deep, in fact, that he fears he might never see his farm again. What surprises await him on the mysterious island of “N”?
