Isabel Soto uses her device to open a portal to travel through space only during this adventure as she receives a call to help search for a missing boat with 2 passengers in the Bermuda Triangle area. She joins a Coast Guard crew and the three of them regale each other with stories and facts about the Bermuda Triangle. The book leans heavily on the scientific side but does leave the mysterious sightings and total disappearances unexplained, while it offers many possible reasonable explanations for those disappearances. The stories of the past disappearances are intriguing and make one wonder and the plot of the book's missing boat and what happens to it and its occupants is interesting. There are fact boxes every now and then telling more information on the topic, a page at the end that lists various information about the topic and the book has an index. An enjoyable and interesting concept for a hi-low reader. Reading Level Gr. 3-4. Interest Level Gr. 3-9.
Really good story, told in a modern way in the style of a graphic novel to catch children's eyes. Well constructed and laid out with not too much information but with little "boxes" of factual infomration to tie in with the story on the side of the page, a clever way of teaching as well as getting a story across.
