Pretty repetitive- but important to read if you want to educate yourself on invasive species or are going to the Galapagos soon.

Richly explained but fast read. The author's passion is clearly evident in this book. Each persona is varied in their field of profession working towards a common cause to save the Galapagos.
But needs editing as some concepts appear repetitive.

Hard to believe this is a book written by a senior high school student.
Definitely my kind of book.
