With a beautiful Christian element, it also delivers life lessons on faith and unconditional love and explores the deep bond sisters share.PRAISE FOR DOLPHIN GIRL:“I really enjoyed this story! Growing up, I was a huge Nancy Drew fan, and this took me back to Summer Reading and bags full of library books. I also really loved learning so much about dolphins. This book is perfect for its intended YA audience, but it’s also a great mystery with a wonderful romantic element for adults, too. I’m looking forward to the next book in this series.” --- D. D.
