Secrets of the Ocean : The Nova Stone
Overview
One stormy night, something dark carried Dad out to sea.
A few weeks after their wild ride across the ocean, Tunie and Runie are home again, and the beach house stands tall on strong new stilts. Then a black storm rolls in out of a clear summer sky. It does not look like a cloud at all. It looks like a hole in the sky. When it is over, Dad is gone.
Now nine-year-old Tunie and six-year-old Runie are out on the dark water in Dad's little boat, buckled into their red life jackets. FiFi, their small red Pomeranian, is sure she is in charge. BB Bear, their big, fluffy white Pomsky, would much rather be napping. Fred, the seagull who has kept watch from their roof all summer, turns out to have a great deal to say. And the pink dolphin is back, leading the way through a long night of icy patches and strange whispers under the waves.
Every island holds a secret, and the Island of Echoes holds the biggest one yet. To bring Dad home, the sisters will have to follow a second map, climb a volcano, and find their way into an old castle that waits under a cloud that never blows away. Someone in that castle wants the Nova Stone, and the girls must learn its secret first. Tunie has a plan. Runie has a plan too. (It is a little bit different.)
Written by a former New York City reading and writing teacher, the Secrets of the Ocean series is full of humor, heart and cliffhanger chapter endings. With short chapters and 44 illustrations, Book 2 is made for reading aloud together and just right for growing independent readers. It can be enjoyed on its own, and readers who loved Book 1 will be glad to be back on the water with the whole family.
For brave readers ages 7 to 10.
