Marlow is a devoted Aquaman fan who longs to become a hero, though his life has so far stayed within the familiar comforts of his saltwater bay. When he gains superpowers and gets the chance to work alongside Aquaman, the story turns his daydream into a question of whether he feels ready for the role. This 72-page graphic novel brings a manatee’s unlikely superhero ambitions into the DC Universe, pairing an aquatic adventure with themes of courage, self-doubt, and stepping beyond the familiar. Cassandra Federman provides the artwork.

Book overview

Calling all fans of Narwhal and Jelly, there's a new adventurous sea creature you gotta meet! From New York Times bestselling author, Ben Clanton comes AQUAMANATEE!

Marlow the manatee isn't exactly superhero material. He sleeps a lot, eats a lot, toots a lot, and has never ventured out of his safe saltwater bay. And yet the sweet bumbling Marlow dreams of adventure, of derring-do, and of making a difference. He dreams of being a hero like Aquaman, of whom Marlow is a mega fan! But when a series of impossible events leads to Marlow having superpowers and not only meeting his hero but getting to team up with Aquaman himself...suddenly Marlow isn't so sure he's ready for his dreams to come true.

Could an awkward blundering super-powered manatee be the best man-atee for the job?

Find out in AQUAMANATEE, from the creator of the blockbuster graphic novel series, Narwhal and Jelly, and with utterly charming artwork by Cassandra Federman! Ben Clanton brings his delightful sensibilities for early readers to the DC Universe in this adorable graphic novel for readers 5-7
