The Extraordinary Adventures of Ordinary Basil

Wiley Miller's comic strip, "Non Sequitur," is syndicated in more than 800 daily newspapers. Now he presents his first book for young readers--an exciting adventure about a boy who saves the world.
Talented and well-known syndicated comic strip artist Wiley Miller presents a stunningly illustrated tale of a boy who is bored by his life and ready to break free from the lighthouse he calls home. Led off by a wonderfully eccentric professor in a hot-air-balloon ship, Basil travels to another dimension where he and a new friend save the fantasy city of Helios from destruction.
