An Everglades adventure about courage, curiosity, and a baby alligator in trouble.
When Ava's family drives deep into the Florida Everglades, she's hot, itchy, and not happy about any of it. The bugs are loud, the grass is taller than her head, and worst of all-there's no Wi-Fi. But everything changes when she spots something small and green moving in the sawgrass.
It's a baby alligator-alone, tangled, and chirping for help. With the guidance of a kind tour guide and a little courage of her own, Ava helps rescue the baby gator and return him to his hidden nest. Along the way, she learns that sometimes the wildest places hold the biggest surprises.
The Ava and the Alligator trilogy follows Ava's unforgettable friendship with Alfi across the Florida Everglades. From tangled nests to echoing waters and one last goodbye, Ava learns that even small voices can do big things.
