Treasure hunters book 65/31/2023 Crossing paths with numerous obstacles, human and otherwise, Bick, Beck, Tommy, and Storm all come together to face adversity with their own special talents. Tapping into their treasure hunting abilities, they begin to unravel the mystery behind their mother's disappearance in hopes of saving her. They must navigate their way to safety while they vow to discover the secrets left by their parents amongst various clues aboard the ship. Opening the novel in an epic storm at sea, Patterson introduces the reader to four orphaned children whose father is presumed lost at sea in the aforementioned storm and whose mother is presumably being held captive in Cyprus. Choosing to dabble into a Patterson YA series, more to fill a little time than to compare it to some of his past works, I thought I would check out this new series.

The Great Kapok Tree by Lynne Cherry5/31/2023 There is the tension in the story as he decides what to do. He picks up his axe and the word of the rainforest creatures echo through his mind. The man wakes up and sees the beauty of the rainforest. They explain not only their dependence on the tree, but also the importance of the tree to the world. While he sleeps, the many species of animals that live in the tree (including frogs, snakes, sloths, birds, anteaters and monkeys) come down to speak to him. Lulled by "the heat and hum of the forest" the other woodcutter falls asleep beneath the Great Kapok Tree. They stop beside a fine Ceiba tree and the larger man points to the tree and leaves. Two woodcutters go to the Amazon rainforest. The book is dedicated to Chico Mendes, a Brazilian rubber tapper trying to protect the rainforests, who was murdered in 1988. It was written and illustrated by Lynne Cherry and was originally published by Harcourt Brace Jovanovich in 1990. The Great Kapok Tree is an American children's picture book about rainforest conservation.
