About this Event
Bestselling author of the Ranger in Time series Kate Messner continues with the third book in this fun, science-based series about a family dedicated to rescuing animals.
Ana and Sofia’s cousins Ivy and Ezra volunteer for the local wildlife hospital as “critter couriers”, helping transport injured and orphaned animals so they can get medical help.
Ana has always followed in her twin’s footsteps, but ever since they moved to California, Ana has been wondering what it’d be like to try something new–like joining the Makers Club instead of playing volleyball again with Sofia.
Then the cousins get a call about an injured gopher tortoise that’s been hit by a car. The city hasn’t done anything to make crossings safer for the endangered animals, so Ivy, Ezra, Ana, and Sofia come up with a plan to do just that. Ana has never been one for the spotlight . . . but the tortoises need her!
If Ana can gather the courage to stand up for the tortoises, maybe she can be brave enough to tell Sofia that she wants to try something new.
