Book of Tamarind series.
On a mission for her aging grandmother, Penny (a baby in The Lost Island of Tamarind) finds herself back on the magical island, where she undergoes trials to become the one to dive into a great wave and keep Tamarind--and her grandmother--safe. With its richly developed world, believable characters, and increasing intensity, this fine conclusion to the trilogy can also stand alone.

In this follow-up to The Lost Island of Tamarind, it's been four years since the Nelson children left the mysterious unmapped island of Tamarind, but they know there is still something strange happening there. They return to the island to find it in upheaval and embark on a mission to help save it. This suspenseful sequel can also stand alone.

After their boat is knocked off course in a storm and their marine biologist parents are tossed overboard, Maya, Simon, and baby Penny land at Tamarind, an unusual island. They encounter unimaginable obstacles and stumble across a mysterious and powerful element that's at the crux of the island's strife. Fast-paced action and heart-pounding adventure will leave readers ready for a sequel.
