I can't believe I've had this book since November and only just now read it. It was SO good. There is one part that I really could not stop reading - not even for marshmallows. I can't believe they finally found the Elvira. If you don't know what I'm talking about, you might want to read the book.

Another really good series of books by Lucy Daniels, I was completely in love with these books when I was younger. This series I particularly likes as it was Dolphin based ands they used to be my favourite animal when I was younger.

If you like animals you cannot help but love these books when you are a child.

Ondanks mijn thalassofobie, hoe heerlijk is het om een jaar lang door allerlei tropische oorden te varen?! Het duiken en zwemmen in de oceaan hoeft van mij niet zo 😅 maar verder lijkt bet me niet onaardig 🤭

my favorite part was when everyone in the sinking boat was saved. the worst part was when the boat went out to the ocean in a big storm, almost a hurricane. my favorite character was jody, because she was one of the reason the people were saved. the worst characters were the people in the boat

I loved dolphins as a child, so back when I was in fifth grade I began this series. It's great for middle schoolers.

Library.

I like that Jody was the first one to discover treasure from the Elvira because the Atlantic Spotted Dolphins led her there.
