Daniel’s story currently takes place in Lenexa, KS with his wife, their two wonderful children, and a dog named Violet that gives them all a run for their money.

Why Icebergs Float], draws on experiences and first-person narratives of adult learners who – out of genuine curiosity or embarrassment at their levels of scientific ignorance – have sought to catch-up on lost school science and get a better understanding of their surroundings as a result. but for a book from wattpad, it was surprisingly written way better than a good amount of other published books i’ve read! This summer, the battle rages over who she’ll spend her vacation with, and when Waverly’s options are shot down, it’s bye-bye Fairbanks, Alaska and hello Holden, Florida to stay with her aunt.

When Emerson finds out he's being forced to attend a summer camp in the Michigan wilderness with a bunch of other RISK factor kids, he's even more unhappy. The story felt a bit rushed and there were times when I couldn’t remember if the author told us something or if we were just supposed to assume. I kept imagining out before that moment and then after until I had what seemed like a complete story.

Waverly’s self-esteem issues, anxiety, and past problems with feeling like she had no friends were definitely relatable, and seeing her confidence blossom over the course of the book is definitely rewarding. I live in north Florida and it was really cool seeing it as the setting of this book-- I'm just hoping that I'll find my own cute little beach town to spend a month-long summer in. But when Blake discovers that Waverly has been hiding the rather embarrassing secret that she can't swim, he does the unthinkable: He offers to teach her.

It tells the story of a young boy who creates a boat out of newspaper, once outside with his boat, a massive rainstorm arrives, his boat floats away, and the adventure begins! i absolutely adore their dynamic and their individual comments made me laugh much harder than i was expecting. Float by Laura Martin is about Emerson, a 12 year old boy, who is being sent to a government mandated camp for RISK kids. She's eager to avoid him at all costs, hoping to fit in with the other kids in Holden without drawing too much attention to herself.David Pike is a renowned author who served in the London Fire Brigade and is a keen supporter of Massey Shaw. However, as she makes friends and grows closer to the boy next door, she finds that Holden, Florida is the first place she’s ever felt like she belonged. The boy mopes along, hovers around a bridge and spies a water-logged piece of newspaper emerge from a drain.

This book encourages us to reflect on our own relationship with science and serves as an important reminder of why we should continue learning as adults. Then we have our wonderful, brooding Blake who has family issues to work through while also making the reader fall head over heels for him.My one real problem is that she doesn’t know how to swim at the start of the book, and apparently finds that embarrassing enough to admit that she endangers herself over it not once but twice in the book, and I did find her constant talking about her height (she’s almost 6 feet tall if I remember correctly) and her clumsiness to wear on me a little. Between Waverly's immaturity and inability to stop talking (it was so hard to keep in mind that this is a YA book), and Blake's boneheaded horrible decision-making.
