Serialized Story
The Great Manatee Rescue
By Mary Maden
Illustrated by Vicki Wallace


When eleven-year-old Ali moves to Florida, she has difficulty adjusting until she meets some unique inhabitants of her neighborhood - a mother manatee and her baby...

Inspired by the author's trip to release a manatee with the
Sea World team, this exciting story has it all - drama, suspense, warmth, and great characters, too.
This 12-chapter story is a great read and comes complete with doses of science and character education.
