ALANi & the Giant Kelp Elf
Authors: Gayle and Tom Joliet
Kelfie and his Kelp Elf Clan need help. Their undersea home, the giant kelp forest off the coast of Laguna Beach, is being destroyed by over-fishing and pollution. Can their human friend, Alani, help them find a solution so they won’t have to leave their homes forever?
This is an engaging story for young children to teach environmental awareness and civic responsibility. Alani and Kelfie realize that people must speak up to create laws that protect the land and sea creatures who cannot speak for themselves.
