A pelican sanctuary under threat

A proposed luxury-condo development puts a beloved pelican sanctuary at the center of a mystery involving strange occurrences and the discovery that the land is a sacred Miccosukee burial ground. Seventeen-year-old Chip Waverly and his cousins Jake and Tanner turn to tribal elders’ wisdom as they confront the threat. The story connects environmental conservation with the protection of Indigenous sacred land, then extends that local struggle into an effort for ocean rescue. Its young protagonists’ fight gives the novel an environmental and community-action focus.
