Planet Earth is turned into a juice box!

When an enormous red and white striped drinking straw appears in the Atlantic Ocean and sucks up his dad's naval battleship, twelve-year-old Jim Moss is left with no choice but to face his fear of water and search for his father.

Teaming up with his wacky inventor uncle, a bunch of fishermen (who think they're pirates), and a group of bizarre alien castaways, Jim's incredible journey takes him from a sleepy village in Portsmouth, England across the Atlantic and into the very edge of space.

If that wasn't enough, the President of the United States is trying to stop everyone from blowing the straw to pieces, while the Earth could well be doomed if Jim can't convince the mysterious presence in orbit that the world is worth saving.
