Publisher Description

In the third installment of the Eddie Dickens saga, Eddie, our steadfast hero, finds himself en route to North America aboard the sailing ship Pompous Pig along with a cargo hold full of left shoes, the world-famous Dog's Bone Diamond, and some of the most disreputable traveling companions anyone might have the misfortune to share a berth with. A mysterious stowaway and some familiar faces from Eddie's past only complicate matters, as does being tied up and set adrift in a leaky rowboat. Will Eddie ever reach America?

"Terribly silly, great fun. What can I say? Any book with mad old relatives and stuffed stoats is bound to be a good read really. Perfect for all ages, physical and mental."

    " I read the first 2 books so I figured I should finish the trilogy and read the 3rd. It was alright, worth reading, but I'm not going out to buy the series for my collection. These books could become a fun movie. "

    " I thought this book was a Terrible Time of reading. It is about a kid named Eddie Dickens who lost his grandmother and diamonds on a ship. It was the most boring book I have ever read. That's what I thought of that terrible waste of time people call a book! "

    " this last book finishes off the story of eddie dickens whose journey was really hilarious in my opinion. i think this book to me was more funnier than the past previous two books. the pictures was also funny and help explain the plot by a little which is still ok. "

    " Another funny installation of the Eddie Dickens series. In this book, Eddie sails to America and has to deal with one of the escaped convicts from the second volume and the theft of a diamond. This one was not quite as good as the first two, but still very funny. "
