About this title

From the Back Cover

Tomi and Marisol’s lives aren’t like most 12 year olds. Having parents who are traveling researchers can make having a regular life tricky. The cool part is that they have friends all over the world and get to have amazing adventures!

A trip to Puerto Rico does sound tempting especially when battling a cold, Chicago winter. Who wouldn’t enjoy swimming in the ocean and lounging on the beach? Except that’s not exactly how this trip will play out. The twins are packing their bags to tag along so their mom can study the Antillean crusted hummingbird in the rainforest. Tomi and Marisol like a good adventure, but sometimes end up where they shouldn’t!

There’s more inside, including a travel journal with the twins’ favorite Puerto Rican dessert recipe and Spanish words for you to try out!
