Description: "From the moment he learns his dad is missing in the jungles of Mexico, Nicky Neill Carpenter knows it is up to him to track him down. Nicky Neill realizes he cannot attempt such a dangerous mission alone; he will need a sidekick. There is only one kid who comes to mind: George Plucowski, a.k.a. Ploox. Scorned for thumb sucking, pant wetting and a chronically leaking schnozz, Ploox is stunned when Nicky Neill asks him to become his unlikely partner."--Cover.
