Lilly can’t seem to get past her fears. She writes all of them in her worry journal. But her biggest fear is WATER. So when Lilly learns that her scientist parents are lost at sea, she must overcome her anxieties to find the fabled Shipwreck Islands, outsmart a bunch of treasure-hungry pirates, and rescue her parents. Can she do it?

Here's a funny, warmhearted tale full of courage, libraries, and swashbuckling fun.
