Dolphin Diaries - Review 1

This makes a great gift for pre-teens. The level of readability is easy and the subject interesting. The shipping was very quick (faster than indicated) and made it on time for a birthday surprise.

Good

This book was good. It kind of tears at your emotions, but that only makes it more enjoyable. Once again, the dolphins always, and I mean ALWAYS being super-friendly to Jody as if they were aquatic humans can be quite annoying. After all, wouldn't mistreated captive dolphins be frightened and a little bit tense around humans? And Jody's love of dolphins can be eye-rollingly sickening as well. I mean, it's not like she just really loves them or something, she's practically OBSESSED! She cries every time something bad happens to a dolphin, and passes up fun activities just so that she can SEE them. But although those things can be bothersome, I still enjoyed this book. All of the characters had their time to shine in this book, or so it seemed, and the story, although difficult to imagine in some parts, was interesting and even kind of absorbing. I recommend this series to dolphin lovers, and girls who like unique and entertaining books.

Chasing The Dream

This is an amazing book and teachs lots about owning dolphins. I love dolphins so much i can relate to Jody. Even with spanish. You should pick this book up. If you reand the first page you will end on the last!!!
