  “By turns heartbreaking and heart-swelling, this is the story of a working-class boy overcoming grinding violence to play among the rock gods. Every hopeless boy should read it.” - Caitlin Moran 
  Jack Jones is a wordsmith with a guitar. Best known as the singer and guitarist of TRAMPOLENE and lead guitarist with Peter Doherty & The Puta Madres, his work blends spoken word, raw honesty, and melodic power. 
  TRAMPOLENE’s fierce, poetic rock ’n’ roll has won the admiration of The Libertines, Liam Gallagher, and John Cooper Clarke, with two No.1 Independent Albums and the honour of opening Swansea Arena in 2022. 
  Jack’s story is one of survival and defiance. By five he had survived a bone tumour and begun to see the cracks in the world; by sixteen he was living with Crohn’s Disease. Through it all, the constants have been his blistering guitar and his poetry - about the struggles and dreams of everyday life, about love, adversity, growing up in Swansea, and seeing the world as it is. 
  “Jack Jones’ words light up the printed page like magnesium released into oxygen.” - Pete Paphides 
  This audiobook gathers that same voice - sharp, funny, vulnerable, and unflinchingly real.

  What was Captain doing in Dragon' s sandbox? He was moping. Because he' d lost his ship.
  " Oh, no! I' ll help you find it! Come on!" Dragon said.
  " Where are we going?" Captain asked.
  " To my cave! I know I have a map there somewhere."
  Armed with a (toy watch) compass, a (paper towel tube) telescope, and a (handdrawn) map, Dragon and Captain set off on a great adventure.
  Dragon is a boy who always wears his dragon robe. And Captain is a boy with a three-sided hat. But as the boys' imaginations take over, we see them as they see themselves, and the backyard as the boys see it: a dark forest, a craggy cliff, and the immense sea.
  Illustrated like a comic book, this book is a fantasy-filled graphic novel for the picture book set.
  Can Dragon and Captain find the lost ship… before lunch?
