Description
An earthquake has set off an oil spill on the ocean floor, and Blue Ocean Bob faces his toughest challenge yet.
Then, riding a wave, Al the dolphin arrived.
“There’s been a big quake, and I barely survived!
The quake caused a crack in the deep ocean floor.
Now oil is erupting like never before!
It’s far too polluted for us to go near.
Perhaps you can get there with your scuba gear?”
After seeking advice from the local sage, Doc the turtle, Bob musters the courage to dive down and repair the damage alongside his mentor, Mary Marine. Upon their return, Wallace the walrus alerts Bob that a great white shark has been beached. Calling on his island friends, Bob devises a creative plan to set the shark free.
But when Mary is called away to a distant island, Bob has to put his fears (and those of his hummingbird guardian, Xena) aside and step into his mentor’s shoes. Some unlikely allies help Bob in his new role, but he soon realizes that he needs even more help. Thanks to a tip from his trusted friend, Earl the clam, Bob finds the perfect candidate in a young girl he meets on the shore.
The Adventures of Blue Ocean Bob: Into the Lead is the third installment in this colorful and inspiring early chapter book series that provides young readers with an introduction to timeless principles of achievement.
“The whole book is written with rhymes, and they flow really well….I felt like the chapters passed very quickly because of the flow from the rhymes. I liked the illustrations. They were colorful, bright, simple but dynamic…. Overall I'd give this book 5 out of 5 stars. I would highly recommend it for people with small children and early readers.” – Just Another Girl And Her Books
“I love these books and this story is no different. The pictures are done so well and are so colorful … we get a great lesson through rhyming.” - KA Children Book Reviews
“This is a book that will introduce and reinforce the concepts of working together, mentorship, friendship, helping the environment as well as showing some of the underworld life and ecology. The illustrations are absolutely gorgeous with bright colors and lots of detail. The story is told in a rhyming way that flows easily and sounds lyrical…. I recommend this book to families, schools and public libraries.” – Carla J, Goodreads
“An excellent way to introduce young readers to ecology, friendship, empathy, and purpose, through gentle and appealing rhymes. ” – Into the Abyss Reviews
Young readers of classic series like Magic Tree House, Geronimo Stilton and Warriors will love these tales of discovery and exploration as they journey with Blue Ocean Bob.
