SECRET UNDER THE SEA

With dolphins the subject of much scientific and philosophical speculation recently, this science-fiction story of life in 2013 is particularly timely. Robby, the son of a marine biologist, spends most of his time beneath the Mexican waters in the company of Balthasar, a dolphin of great strength, loyalty, and intelligence. When the Vandals-- those individuals who must always have their way--raise havoc by stalking the Martian sea badgers, creatures of great importance to the work carried on by marine biologist, Robbie and his dolphin are summoned to action. Together they help subdue the Vandals and restore security to Martian specimens. Peopled with whimsical characters, both fish and flesh, this is a lively escapade into the watery future, one which combines fun and fact.
