Join Maximillian and Minerva as they embark on their first adventure together under the sea.

"Maximillian, the main character, gives readers the same mix of wonder, warmth and intriguing information that will stay with them for years to come. I love the quality of the book as it is well written and the large joyful illustrations are attractive to children and adults alike. Most of all the book shares an important environmental message."

"What a wonderful book. The combination of a beautiful poetic story, fun facts, and information about manatees is outstanding. The characters and illustrations are so cute and colorful. There are even coloring pages included. Can't wait to share this book with the little ones in my family."

"The fact that manatees are endangered and that we must be mindful about their presence on earth makes this an important book. It is an endearing story that children will love and relate to. The illustrations are amazing and the activities in the back are great for enforcing the scientific information about manatees and how they are an endangered species worth preserving."
