Reach for this book when your child expresses a deep fascination with the natural world or shows a desire to take on real responsibility. It is an ideal choice for the middle-grade reader who is transitioning from simple animal stories to more complex narratives where children must use logic and bravery to protect the environment. The story follows a group of unlikely friends recruited by a marine biologist to help tag sharks, but they soon discover that real-world threats to the ocean require more than just scientific curiosity: they require teamwork and moral courage. While the plot is high-stakes and features suspenseful encounters with both marine predators and human antagonists, it remains firmly grounded in a sense of justice and environmental stewardship. It is perfect for children ages 8 to 12 who enjoy mysteries and outdoor adventures. Parents will appreciate the way it balances fast-paced action with genuine marine science, showing kids that they have the agency to make a difference in the world around them through observation and cooperation.
