Gracie has only been snorkeling a few times, but she knows she wants to go again. Every chance she gets she is researching it and finding where in the world to go for the best snorkeling experience. With vacation coming up, she is determined to get her parents to book an amazing snorkeling adventure.
Her greatest dream is to go to the Maldives. When she discovers how expensive it is, she knows she needs a backup plan. She also needs the family to go somewhere a little easier so her little brother Ben can learn to snorkel. In her research Gracie comes across Roatan, Honduras. She puts together a plan she hopes her parents can't refuse.
Success! Gracie's family will be traveling to Roatan. They fly in and the adventure begins. There are ups and downs and lots to learn, but the trip is just what Gracie hoped.
Author Linda Sue Park takes readers on the adventure with Gracie. Park helps readers learn about coral reefs and how climate change is causing problems that need concerned people like Gracie and her new friends to keep them alive and thriving. This is a great middle grade book for both entertainment and education.
