Ten-year-old, eco-warrior Snorkel McCorkle is determined to fix the unfixable in her life-a manatee's missing flipper, the school bullies, the endangered environment...even her mom's disappearance at sea.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSnorkel McCorkle is a bi-racial ten-year-old with a mass of unruly curls that are always tangled in her snorkel and mask. She's been wearing them and her flippers 24\/7 since she learned that her mom, a marine biologist, was lost at sea while measuring water quality off the Florida Keys three months ago. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Snorkel is the only person who believes her mom is still alive drifting in the ocean. Every night Snorkel charts how far her mom could travel that day on a map of ocean currents-up the Atlantic coast, to Newfoundland, across the Atlantic, possibly past England and Scotland to Norway. By now she could be as far as the Canary Islands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Snorkel's best friends are Matilda the Manatee (Sea grass gives her sea gas! Yes, there's a fart song!) who's missing a flipper but has a tracking device, and Figaro the opera singing pelican, who does two shows a day at the local fishing pier. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e When Snorkel's kayak is pulled out to sea in a storm, Matilda and Figaro rush to her aid. During the trio's time in open water, Snorkel learns first hand the dangers facing the creatures of the sea as they: rescue an endangered sea turtle trapped in ghost net in an island of plastic; encounter a Mama Right whale who thinks Snorkel is a whaler; and are surrounded by a pod of dolphins racing away from seismic testing. Snorkel learns just how difficult humans have made life for creatures of the oceans, and she learns how a person could survive floating on the currents. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eSnorkel McCorkle and the Lost Flipper \u003c\/em\u003eis an environmental action adventure story with music!
