Adventure on Dolphin Island

As a marine biologist, boater, and father of two daughters (ages 3 & 4), I truly enjoyed reading Adventure on Dolphin Island. We read every night, and I think I looked forward to each new chapter as much as my girls did. The first couple of chapters were so exciting, that we were hoked by page 7. I used so many events in the book to weave into broader lessons to teach my girls about boating safety (especially about wearing a life jacket!), making friends, bravery, and marine animals & plants. There was plenty of factual information, yet enough fictional frosting to spark the imagination. This is the first Prager book we have read, but I am already looking for our next selection.

Lots of good information for the pre-teen reader about tropical marine life interwoven with the adventures of the main characters.
