Adventure Marine

Meet Jack, a typical sixth grader except for his glorious passion for all things under the sea. One morning Jack secretly embarks on a dive alone, taking his gear and some gadgets invented by his dad, including a "scubaphone", a device that allows divers to talk without a tablet. Enter Armstrong, a brilliant and beguiling octopus. The eight-armed creature not only befriends Jack and teaches him about the creatures swimming around him, but leads him to a long-lost ship. There, they confront an earthquake, unpleasant animal strife, a collapsing cave, and worst of all, treasure hunters.
