Description
Tamzin and Rissa discover to their horror that many seabirds in the district are dying because their wings become clogged with oil which floats on the sea. What are they to do? They form the Seabirds Rescue League and try to start a clinic to de-oil the birds. They range farther afield, and the adventures they encounter in their efforts to contact the experts almost distract them from the object of their quest. On one terrifying occasion, Meryon becomes, unwittingly, an engine driver. Operation Seabird is an exciting story, packed with action , yet it is based securely on real people coping with real problems.
This newly released edition from Girls Gone By publishing is in mint condition. It has a preface by Shelley Edwards (Monica Edwards’ daughter), an article on “Monica Edwards: The Person, The Places, The Books” and the full publishing history of Operation Seabird.
