Renata Wolfman (Wolfie) is a lone wolf. She does everything by herself — friends just get in the way. Livingston Flott (Fly) is a slightly weird and wordy boy looking for a friend. He loves to make up songs and talk and eat snacks.
When Fly takes refuge from his angry older brother at Wolfie's house, he convinces Wolfie that her homemade submarine would be more fun with two. Suddenly Wolfie finds herself motoring through deep water with Fly as her second-in-command. Will they get home? Will they defeat Pirate Bob? Will Fly ever stop singing?
Find out in Wolfie and Fly's first adventure!
