ESMERALDA
AND THE ENCHANTED POND
Science presented as fantasy for ages 7-10

Esmeralda and her dad love to visit their enchanted pond deep within a Florida forest. They see animals busily scurrying to and fro, trees and plants growing wild, and pond creatures serenely sunning themselves. While Esmeralda’s dad uses his imagination to explain the natural events that take place around the pond, Esmeralda wants more scientific explanations for what happens during each season. Her dad gives Esmeralda the realistic answers the inquisitive girl demands. But, in the end, Esmeralda’s pond is enchanted.

Are the turtles really gnomes? Are the dragonflies fairies? Did the evil king really turn the pond dark brown, or is there a scientific reason for the murky water? Journey down the moss-covered path with Esmeralda and her dad as they visit a mysterious pond looking for most amazing sights!

Esmeralda and the Enchanted Pond mixes science and fantasy as an imaginative father and his curious daughter explore the watery habitat of a fascinating pond deep within a Florida forest.
