How to Save an Otter

From the bestselling author of the Ranger in Time series, Kate Messner, comes an adventurous new chapter book series about a family dedicated to rescuing animals.

 

Siblings Ivy and Ezra couldn’t be more different, but they have one thing in common: a love of animals. Their family volunteers for the local wildlife hospital as “critter couriers”, helping transport injured and orphaned animals so they can get medical help.

While mountain biking with their family one day, Ivy and Ezra stumble upon a baby river otter with a leg injury. Already shaken because her twin cousins and best friends recently moved away, Ivy worries about the baby otter, separated from its family. During a visit to the wildlife hospital, she notices a need for towels and creates a plan to organize a towel drive as part of her school’s Earth Day celebration.

Can Ivy gain confidence in herself and help the otter heal enough to return to the wild?
