In this sequel to the incredible first book, Khasoggi has outdone herself. This adventure deals with overfishing and reef destruction--an incredibly important issue that many people sadly do not consider important. The artwork is continually gorgeous, and the amount of detail present in both the backgrounds and character faces is impressive. Spartan and his friends are a resourceful, inquisitive group of children who represent very good role models for your own kids.Their visit to the Philippines in this book also exposes children to other cultures and cultural practices. What could be better than an incredibly illustrated adventure story that simultaneously teaches children how to care for the environment and exposes them to other cultures? This fantastic combination of adventure and learning is something I wish I saw more. At any rate, Khashoggi's newest offering is a high-quality quest that will prove itself as a classic. I hope we don't have to wait long for the next one!
