Practicing "social distancing" is nothing like summertime in Iceland with their almost 24 hours of glistening sunlight each day, but it's still perfect for lighting the way and reading about adventurous little puffins. But when two puffin friends, Árni and Birta, embark upon a journey of exploration, an Icelandic Faery plays clever tricks on them, making their grand adventure take longer than expected. The extended darkness of September's nightfall looms large on the horizon, and the pufflings must find their way home in a hurry.
Puffins Encounter Fire & Ice is the third installment in RA Anderson's delightful Iceland: The Puffin Explorers Series, and this time around, Iceland's natural wonders take center stage. Árni and Birta discover glaciers, volcanoes, natural energy, lava fields, waterfalls and some of the legendary folk of Iceland. But as nightfall draws closer, Árni's parents must step up their frantic search for these two curious puffins to help guide them back to their burrows before dark. Will they succeed? Join the adventure to find out!
Although intended for children who have a love for all animals, birds and nature, adults will find that these books hold a unique type of travelogue, complete with fun facts and breathtaking photography shot by the author as she explored the beautiful country of Iceland.
Puffins Encounter Fire & Ice follows in the webbed footsteps of Puffins Take Flight and Puffins off the Beaten Path, the first two books in Anderson's entertaining and educational Puffin Explorers Series.
