Teddy G. Reviews: THE MUSIC OF DOLPHINS

The Music of Dolphins is an incredible book about a young girl named Mila who was raised in the ocean by dolphins. She was found on an island off Cuba. Is she a human? Yes she is! The real conflict is she acts like a dolphin. Two lovely people, Doctor Beck and Sandy (who were sometimes forced to lock Mila in her room so she wouldn’t escape to swim in water) nurtured her. Mila enjoyed life on land with her human friends, but really missed her family in the ocean. Does she return to her family of dolphins?

REVIEW by DAVID W. - STC 2016

SCAT by CARL HIASSEN
When the class bully, Smoke, and the meanest teacher in school, Mrs. Starch, get in a squabble, nobody expects anything serious to happen. But when the grade goes on a fieldtrip, a wildfire starts; and when Mrs. Starch goes back into the blaze to get a student’s medicine, she disappears. Could Smoke, a known pyromaniac, have set the fire to get back at Mrs. Starch? The protagonist, Nick, and his friend, Marta, start an investigation. But when a baby panther, separated from his mother during the fire, appears, everything gets more intense. Will Nick and Marta ever find Mrs. Starch?
