A Dolphin Wish

Gr 3–5—This series, written by Grammy-nominated singer Grant, introduces three blonde sisters: 10-year-old twins, Maddie and Mia, and little sister Lulu. In London Art Chase, the girls travel to London for the first time with their famous singing mom, Gloria Glimmer; dad; and zany nanny, Miss Julia Twist. Although the story revolves around all three sisters, Maddie takes center stage. She finds herself on the chase for a famous missing painting. What follows is a fun adventure while the mystery behind the art theft unravels. In A Dolphin Wish, Mia uncovers a mystery of her own when the girls visit an adventure park where the animals are going missing. Grant's background in Christian music is evident here; the girls' faith guides them through their adventures. God and Christianity play major roles in the story. When the girls face a dilemma, it is not only their family but their faith that shapes their choices. The sisters are sweet and innocent. As the slight mysteries unfold, Grant interjects some realistic life lessons about overcoming deceit and coping with everyday family issues.
