Call of the Snow Dolphin cover

A spirited Pacific spree (ages 8–11)
Join Kai on a sixteen-hour race up the world’s tallest mountain. It’s a run – yikes! – against nine other kids, each with an unusual ability, from directing life-force to seeing dragons.
Although Kai can chat with dolphins, he is full of self-doubt and embarrassed at being super-tall. Now he must face a hungry shark, an erupting volcano and a scumbag villain, all while being mocked by the other kids.
But through his dream guide, the dolphins tell him of an ancient prophecy: a boy will come who will usher the world into a new era of peace. Can he find a winning way to stand tall within himself and fulfil the prophecy?
