"There once was a boy who lived close to the sea And daydreamed all day about what he might be. His island was lush and his life wasn't bad, But he wasn't content with the things that he had." Despite his idyllic island life, young Bob yearns for a greater sense of fulfillment. He just knows there's something out there--something special--just waiting for him! Along with Xena, his hummingbird guardian, Bob travels from his tropical island to the greatest minds the ocean has to offer, including the carefree dolphin Al, the wise turtle Doc, the insightful clam Earl, and the jolly walrus Wallace, plus other new friends he meets along the way, to ask the important questions of life. What is my purpose? Can you share your knowledge with me? What will make me content? In sparkling, rhyming text, Bob discovers his true purpose to protect all life in the sea, and learns how to prepare for the roadblocks and pitfalls that face him as he sets his ambitious goals for the future. Thanks to both human and animal guides, Bob learns persistence, confidence, and how to set his purpose, vision, and goals so that he can achieve his dreams. Most importantly, he learns how to adjust his attitude to one that overcomes obstacles and sets him up for success! Every child will love the gorgeous illustrations and inspiring story of Blue Ocean Bob, whose magical sea journeys with dolphins, whales, turtles, and a special hummingbird will teach them to have a "can-do attitude" and learn to look at every problem from a new direction until the solution is revealed. "Blue Ocean Bob encourages children to pursue their dreams. It will spark their imaginations and take them on a journey. The plot is strong and full of adventure. The characters are endearing and believable. This is a unique series because Olbrys has used "timeless principles of achievement," to encourage children to dream big - Think it. See it. Believe it. Achieve it ." -- Patricia T., Goodreads "I feel drawn to this book because of what it teaches children: the basic principle of following through, persevering, and achievement. Learned as a child, this surely carries over into adulthood. When something is completed, there is a sense of achievement. Passing that on to your child? Gold!" -- Raven Reviews "The Adventures of Blue Ocean Bob - A Journey Begins" is a great book that is entertaining yet teaches children how to persevere, achieve and set goals. A very well-written story with illustrations for each "goal" that is easy to understand and follow. A fantastic read that I would recommend to all children ages 5-7 (+/-), and parents alike." -- Susan, Goodreads Young readers of classic chapter book series like Magic Tree House, Geronimo Stilton and Warriors will love these tales of discovery and exploration as they journey with Blue Ocean Bob.
