Our bespectacled fish reveals his curiosity and caution as he befriends both humans and ocean dwellers beneath the water's surface. Ultimately, he brings together a community of Pacific Coast reef inhabitants to help save their homes. For many of the fish swimming in the Pacific reefs, a boat on the water's surface signals "terror in the sky." But when a young girl named Marsha loses her glasses over the side of one of these "floating islands," they serendipitously land on the face of a speedy little "Manini" fish known as "Bad Eyes." In a gesture of friendship, Marsha leaves her new finned acquaintance with this miraculous gift. From there, the detailed characters and action draw interest while his questioning dialogue weaves in an educational component that relays information about creature characteristics, habits, and the ocean's decline in this magical and creative foray into the ocean realm of a myopic fish. Even a big-eyed, noodle-legged octopus brings a teachable moment, commenting that "beauty comes from what I can do, not how I look." Character interactions are brought full circle with Marsha's return in the final chapter, and the story ends on a positive note, teasing more adventures with Bad Eyes and Marsha to come. | |

Carolina's teaching career spans nearly twenty years where she focused on teaching Spanish to children and also held classes for adults and senior citizens. Carolina's approach to teaching is to allow children to learn Spanish through song, dance, music, art and other mediums in a fun and
comfortable environment, so that children feel free to express themselves and learn Spanish without even knowing they are in school.
Carolina now has decided to concentrate on writing children's books and Spanish/English tutorials to bring her methods and ideas to the world.
Carolina Averbuj was born in Santa Fe, Argentina where she and her family established deep roots. Carolina began teaching in Santa Fe and later moved to the United States in 1999 when she fell in love with San Diego, California. Carolina is a mother to two wonderful children and a wife to a loving husband. | |
