The first book in the Adventures of Beatrice the Little Green climate change, mystery series

New middle grade fiction book series about climate change and climate refugees celebrates the resilience and inquisitive spirit of a girl in the South Pacific on the remote nation of Tuvalu. What follows is excerpted from the recent review by Midwest Book Review.

April 22, 2016 - - The Aviator's Last Words, the first book in the Adventures of Beatrice the Little Green Girl, a multicultural series, opens not with a bang but with the swell of the sea and a group of friends who observe that, someday, the fierce waves that surround their island home in the South Pacific might destroy it. With climate change Tuvalu is one of the "canaries in the coal mine." Its people struggle daily with forces that would have them abandon their island home. Hopefully, before that time, they will find the legendary treasure the island is supposed to hold, and Beatrice will solve the mysteries in her own life.

Flooding always follows a cyclone on Tuvalu's islands and Beatrice has experienced weather threats all her young life; but even as it brings destruction (which the islanders are used to), it also brings the children hope that the changing seas and shores will uncover an artifact from an American pilot who once lived on the island when Tuvaluans had to temporarily vacate their home during World War II.

Tuvalu's culture and setting come alive as Beatrice explores her island and its mysteries, from banana plantations, TeNamo lagoon and coconut palms to meals of flying fish and a potato-like vegetable called a pulaka. From interactions between island family and friends to a long journey to America, Beatrice finds her world expands when new information is revealed about a treasure she's unearthed in a puddle.

Her research and investigative process is compelling and young readers will avidly follow how she uncovers clues about her find and makes some startling connections far from home.

Can ancient peoples - and ghosts - come to life? Can Beatrice uncover the clues that solve her peculiar and unsettling mystery? A delightful saga blends a girl's journey with her attempts to discover a strange and wonderful truth, creating a story filled with quirky encounters that take her far from the simplicity of her island roots.

Advanced elementary to middle school readers will find The Aviator's Last Words holds all the elements of a satisfying mystery, set against the backdrop of climate change and personal challenges.
