Ink Me
Seven (the series)
When David McLean, well-loved grandfather and avid adventurer, dies, he leaves behind an unusual will that outlines sevens tasks he has set for his seven grandsons.
Eric Walters, John Wilson, Ted Staunton, Richard Scrimger, Norah McClintock, Sigmund Brouwer and Shane Peacock bring their signature writing styles to a series of adventures that take readers from the top of Kilimanjaro to the bottom of the Mediterranean.
Ink Me
Grandson: Bunny (age 15)—the youngest grandson.
Bunny isn't very smart—he's the first to admit it—so it's a good thing his grandfather's task doesn't require him to leave his hometown of Toronto, Ontario. All he has to do is get a specific tattoo that meant something to David McLean. No problem—even Bunny can figure out where to find the tattoo parlor. But how is he to know that the absent-minded tattoo artist has given him the wrong tattoo? Written in a unique but highly readable style, Ink Me is a little bit crazy and a whole lot brilliant.
