THE DITHEREENS: ZOOM BARRIER REEF

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE : Children's Fiction
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Solving
this mystery could change everything...
From
the deep ocean to a secret doughnut-shaped reef, Zoom and Stephen must confront
their fears and find the clues they need.
This
time Zoom and Stephen have their friends with them. But will it be enough when
it comes time to face their greatest enemy?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Excerpt One:
‘Oh ho! Bon
voyage, boys!’ said Rodonga.
A crack
appeared between the jelly and Rodonga’s shell above Zoom and Stephen. Clear
ocean water gushed in as the gap widened, soaking the two birds in refreshing
cool water. Zoom and Stephen flicked their wings. They could breathe and talk
just like normal inside their breathing bubbles.
The current
swallowed them and carried them several metres away from Rodonga. The two birds
flipped and twisted playfully in the water, before pausing and facing Rodonga.
They treaded water and waved at Rodonga as they shouted, ‘Bon Voyage, Rodonga!’
before flapping their wings and turning east.
Rodonga brought
her shell back to reattach to the clear jelly. When she had flushed the salty
water from inside the shell, she began to slowly pull her head back towards the
curved part of the shell where she hid. Then Rodonga remembered something.
‘Oh ho!’
Rodonga whirred. ‘I forgot to tell those feathered lads that the little jungah
was here this morning, looking for ‘em again.’
Rodonga peered
through the clear jelly to look for Zoom and Stephen, but they had already swum
away.
‘Oh ho!’ said
Rodonga as she disappeared into her shell. ‘Too late now.’ Rodonga smiled to
herself, thinking how an adventure is not an adventure without a little bit of
excitement sprinkled here and there.
