Join Max and Sofia, two kids trying to save the environment one
problem at a time with their magical sailboat. Their latest mission?
Cleaning up the plastic waste that's hurting puffins and belugas in
Iceland.
In Starry Bay, summer vacation means snorkeling for sea glass by the
beach, until Max and Sofia come across an abandoned sailboat. With a
spin of the wheel, Wind Rider transports them to animals who need
their help! This time, they drop anchor in Iceland's frigid waters,
where Max and Sofia team up with the Puffin Patrol, a group of Icelandic
kids who protect and preserve the local puffin colony. But it seems that
the puffins aren't the only ones in trouble. Max and Sofia will have to
think fast to save a beached beluga whale.
Wind Riders: Whale Song of Puffin Cliff is the fourth installment in
this highly illustrated chapter book series. Each story visits a new
location and introduces a human-made problem endangering animals and the
environment.
With nature's highest stakes and environmental activism baked into each
book, as well as fun scientific facts included at the end, Wind Riders
promises to be the chapter book series for newly independent readers who
love nature documentaries and are hungry to learn about the world around
them.
There is beautiful two-color art throughout and an emphasis on
collaborative problem-solving, compassion for the Earth and all its
inhabitants, and friendship. Wind Riders is the perfect STEM chapter
book series for fans of Magic Tree House, The Magic School Bus, and Zoey
and Sassafras*.*
