Riley travels to the South Pacific island of Moorea with his Uncle Max, Aunt Martha and Cousin Alice to study the local spinner dolphin population while basking in the warmth and charm of Polynesian culture. However, their mission takes a turn for the worse when a pod of dolphins become dangerously trapped in a local lagoon!
Riley holds the key to their survival, but between surfing lessons and close encounters with humpback whales, will he realize it in time? And can this daring young explorer do it alone? Based on actual events, Dolphins in Danger also features Dr. Michael Poole, the world’s leading authority on spinner dolphins.
Award-winning visuals, thrilling storylines, curriculum applications, kid-friendly fact boxes and cutting-edge science distinguish this landmark new series as a pioneer in Environmental Education for children.
If you love the Pacific Ocean, spinner dolphins, humpback whale, tropical fish like the grouper, parrot fish, manta ray or moray eel and other things found in Morrea like breadfruit, vanilla bean, volcanoes, lagoons and black pearls found in oysters you'll love this book!
"Imaginative, informative and, in part, inspirational, this latest book in the ‘Adventures of Riley’ series draws readers, young and old alike, into the exhilarating world of wildlife conservation. This is an absolutely delightful book which proves the point that education doesn’t always have to take place in the classroom.”
