       PRAISE FOR THE SERIES

       The Shark Rider

      “This is a great follow-up to Prager’s first Sea Guardians novel, sure to hook more fans.”

      —Booklist

      “Tristan, with his talent for conversing with sharks, and his marine biologist creator, author Ellen Prager, use this fascinating plot to explore ecological avenues, proving that even kids can have an awesome skill that can save the planet.”

      —Foreword Reviews

      “. . . amazingly imaginative, tautly written, just-slightly-magical, fancifully fun series. Warning: You’re likely to learn a lot too.”

      —Carl Safina, ocean scientist and conservation expert and author of Beyond Words and Nina Delmar

      “Earn your sea legs and go on an exciting eco-adventure . . . It’s fun, funny, informative, and my favorite part is where the characters must outrun a hurricane. And where do they get their information to track the storm—The Weather Channel, of course!”

      —Stephanie Abrams, on-camera meteorologist for The Weather Channel

       The Shark Whisperer

      “Like author Rick Riordan, who mixes adventure with Greek myths, [Prager] writes books that include action and humor, science and sea creatures.”

      —The Washington Post, KidsPost

      “. . . an underwater Harry Potter, sure to inspire readers to want to dive in and experience the ocean for themselves.”

      —Sylvia A. Earle, National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence and founder of Mission Blue

      “Those who know Prager well wouldn’t be astounded to find her delving into the realm of ocean science and youth fiction. Throughout her career, Prager always made it a priority to involve young minds.”

      —The Miami Herald

      “A wonderful read that grips you from the very beginning. This empowering story of a group of young people who band together to save the oceans and change the world is a terrific adventure.”

      —Philippe Cousteau, explorer and environmental advocate

      “Appealing characters, non-stop adventure, and a sprinkling of humor blend with . . . education about marine life and the ocean in fun and interesting ways.”

      —VOYA Magazine

      “Ellen Prager takes her readers on an exciting, action-packed adventure into the mysterious world of the deep, with an edge of fantasy that only the most vivid imagination could conjure up. A rollicking ride of fun, that also imparts to her young readers a valuable education about the marine world, and the fascinating creatures that live in and around it.”

      —Sam Champion, anchor at The Weather Channel, former weather anchor for ABC News

      “Here’s one book that as a father and an ocean lover I can wholeheartedly recommend. Take the adventure, dive in, and happy reading!”

      —Bob Woodruff, ABC News correspondent
