Description
Splash has lived her entire twelve years in the middle of land-locked southern Texas. She's never been near the ocean. But now, she and her family are living in a floating bubble on the Pacific Ocean to do research. They are joined by another family with fifteen-year-old twins, Cassie and Donovan. The others are all working hard to help save the oceans. And then there's Splash...
It's easy to fit in, right? To find the thing you're really good at so you can help the team? Now that Splash has decided to stay on the Bubble, she wants to quickly figure out how she can help-just like her new friends already do.
Is she good at caring for marine animals or charting their migration paths? Is she good at taking ocean measurements or fixing instruments? Splash tries several new jobs. But things don't go as smoothly as she thought they would.
How will Splash be able to contribute?
