Adventure on Dolphin Island Paperback – August 17, 2005

nowhere as good as Shark Whisperer, but interesting for middle school readers.

Very disappointed. I heard the author talking about the book, but just didn't seem to flow easily or be that interesting

My 12 year old son loves Ellen Prager books, so much so that we pre ordered Shark rider after reading Shark Whisperer.

We love her books

Lots of good information for the pre-teen reader about tropical marine life interwoven with the adventures of the main characters.

As a marine biologist, boater, and father of two daughters (ages 3 & 4), I truly enjoyed reading Adventure on Dolphin Island. We read every night, and I think I looked forward to each new chapter as much as my girls did.The first couple of chapters were so exciting, that we were hoked by page 7. I used so many events in the book to weave into broader lessons to teach my girls about boating safety (especially about wearing a life jacket!), making friends, bravery, and marine animals & plants.There was plenty of factual information, yet enough fictional frosting to spark the imagination. This is the first Prager book we have read, but I am already looking for our next selection.
