Sea Monsters and Other Delicacies: No. 2 The Beastly Boys

**Sea Monsters and Other Delicacies: No. 2 The Beastly Boys**

Dive into this wonderfully weird second installment where culinary chaos meets mythical mayhem! The Beastly Boys are back, cooking up trouble with recipes that would make Gordon Ramsay weep—and not from joy. Think tentacles in your soup, dragon steaks gone wrong, and kitchen disasters that literally have teeth.

This delightfully dark children's fantasy blends gross-out humor with genuine heart, exploring themes of friendship, courage, and why you should never trust a cookbook written by sea witches. Perfect for reluctant readers aged 8-12 who love Captain Underpants or Horrible Histories—kids who prefer their adventures with a side of slime.

This preloved gem from Patina Paperbacks shows its love but delivers maximum entertainment value. Genre-bending middle-grade fiction that proves books about monsters and cooking can actually teach empathy.

**Reader Reviews:**
"My 10-year-old devoured this faster than the boys devoured that unfortunate kraken casserole. Finally, a sequel that doesn't disappoint!"

"Brilliantly bonkers. Had my whole family giggling over breakfast—though we stuck to normal cereal afterward."
