Review: Saving the Seas for the Purple and Green - Nancy Carlisle - March 2022

Working now at the House of Science which helps provide science resources to primary school students, I am becoming more aware of the environment and all things science-y orientated and that includes plastics and pollution. One of the kits we have is called "A Load of Rubbish" and lately I've watched a few videos based on the amount of pollution in the waters. Also a few years ago when I worked at the library, we did a school visit based on this topic as well. Saving the Seas by Nancy Carlisle is about a young girl named Violet who loves the ocean and the beach. One day, she heads down there and is shocked at how much rubbish is there. Violet then takes action to help clean up the beaches and stop plastic pollution to save not only the sea animals but also the corals and rocks etc. This book is perfect for children aged 5- 10 years old and would make a great resource for the classroom and any teaching opportunities about plastic pollution and saving our waters etc.

    Thank-you so much for the nice review. If there is a way to get the book included in the resource you mentioned called "A load of rubbish", I'd certainly try to pursue it. I appreciate the review and your time. Sincerely, nancy

Review: Steel Princess - Rina Kent

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he

So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she
