While things were bad at home for Jacob, things are far worse on Slimer's Isle, where sharks are in the waters surrounding the place and a bad-tempered, child-hating strongman named Hooded Fang runs the show. Reprint. NYT.

From the Inside Flap:

Poor Jacob Two-Two. Not only must he say everything twice just to be heard over his four brothers and sisters, but he finds himself the prisoner of the dreaded Hooded Fang. What had he done to deserve such a punishment? The worst crime of all ? insulting a grown-up! Although he?s small, Jacob is not helpless, especially when The Infamous Two come to his aid.

From the Back Cover:

“Everyone should go out tomorrow and beat his local bookseller into submission if he hasn’t got a nice, plump display of books titled Jacob Two-Two Meets the Hooded Fang.”
