Adventure on Dolphin Island by Ellen Prager

Adventure on Dolphin Island by Ellen Prager

A family vacation aboard a rented sailboat turns into a horrible nightmare when young Kelly Wickmer is swept off the boat in a raging storm in the Bermuda Triangle. Alone in the wild sea, the timid young girl must struggle for survival and fight her fears of the ocean and its creatures, especially sharks. As darkness surrounds her, a nearby wave explodes in shimmering light and a dolphin appears.

The dolphin brings Kelly to a mysterious tropical island, unlike anything she has ever seen or heard about. Kids on the island befriend her as they encounter stingrays, sea turtles, iguanas, giant tortoise, the fish of a coral reef, and more. Yet, Kelly longs to go home. As she searches for a way off the island and the dolphin that saved her, she will have the adventure of a lifetime. If she survives, it will change her life forever.

Adventure on Dolphin Island combines the best of fiction and non-fiction, with an exciting story of fantasy and adventure blended with fascinating true details about the sea and marine life.

A percentage of the profits from sales will go toward marine education.
