Alex & Ace: The Adventures on the River of Grass by Susan Steinman (Paperback)

Deep in the murky marshes of the Florida Everglades, mystery awaits. Alex and Ace are reunited with their animal friends, Corvus Merle Raven, and Ginger Cinnamon Tenderfoot. Corvus is the head of the Council of All Good Everywhere (C.A.G.E.) and help is needed now.
They must find a missing statue which has magical, protective powers. The stakes are high, and the future of this enchanted land is uncertain if they can’t locate it. The race is on, and they must work together as a team to find it before greedy Sully Duskfinger does.
In this second adventure in the Alex and Ace series, the kids discover not everything is as it seems. Exploring the boundaries of the unknown takes courage and determination. Suspense and excitement build as the kids realize they are up for the task.
The Alex and Ace series has been described by readers as fun, chock full of inspiring messages, twists of suspense and plenty of thrills for both boys and girls 8-12.
Join the adventure and get ready to explore the mangrove forest with Alex and Ace. Watch out though! You never know what surprises might arise on the untamed river of grass.
