Overview

Set sail with Captain Steve, JD, Samantha, and Brody as they journey into the shimmering waters of Alabama's Mobile-Tensaw Delta - a place where shadows glide beneath the surface, ripples tell stories, and gentle giants rise with a whisper of magic. When the crew sets off to explore Chuckfee Bay, they discover that manatees - the mystical ""mermaids"" of old sailor tales - are full of surprises. From learning to read water footprints to hearing the soft ""PSSSHHHT"" of a manatee surfacing, young readers join in the wonder, laughter, and excitement of spotting one of the Delta's rarest visitors. Blending science, storytelling, and the quiet mysteries of the wild, Mystical Manatees of the Delta invites kids to look closer, listen deeper, and fall in love with the extraordinary creatures that call these waters home.
