What Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken is
Ruby Gillman doesn’t just have a school lunch problem, she discovers she’s royalty—of the slimy, tentacled variety. A sweet but clueless teen learns she belongs to a long line of kraken queens meant to keep mermaids in check. All she wants is to fit in, not inherit a throne or deal with heritage squid drama.
