Ben M. Baglio created the brief for two series of children's books - Dolphin Diaries and Animal Ark. Dolphin Diaries features a girl and her family from Florida, who travel around the world as marine biologists and study dolphins.

The books were written by commissioned writers in the UK under Baglio's instruction using the pseudonym Lucy Daniels. Each ghostwriter is named with a 'Special Thanks' on the copyright page.

Using his real name he also wrote the book series The Pet Finders Club, featuring a group of three children who search for peoples lost pets.

I think the book was great because I love the Animal Ark haunting or no haunting series the same.....it is so good how Mandy and James solve little mysteries about animals.I love animals so this really interests me so much and now I know a lot more about animals then before.I can't believe a wolve's mouth is twice as strong as the German Shepherd's mouth.I learned that from the book.

This is a great collection for any Animal Ark fan. It has a full length story [the same length as the Animal Ark books] and plenty of short stories full of adventures with Mandy and James.
