I wanted to let you know about a fun new children's book that will go a long way towards teaching kids about the threats to our environment and getting them to take action at home, at school and in their neighborhood.

Synopsis : When Big B is dragged from his comfortable life and close friends in Chicago by his grandfather s mysterious affliction, he s sure he s going to have the worst summer ever. But soon after arriving in the tropical paradise of Nui Island, he is caught in a web of danger and intrigue.

The Ma'ema'e reef is dying, his grandfather s brilliant mind has been infected, and creepy Island legends are coming to life. Big B and his new friends, Sam and Nalu, rely on logic, intuition, courage, and strength to unravel Nui's ancient mysteries. What they uncover will help them save the island, restore his grandfather's soul, and break the curse of the Bone Pirates.

Curse of the Bone Pirates is set in a place deep in the South Pacific Ocean on exotic, fictional Nui Island, it has everything other books like it have. Adventure. Sinister and lovable characters. Twists and turns in the plot. Science, discovery and wonderment. It goes one step further, however. Woven into its action-packed plot, are subtle messages on conservation and sustainability. Lessons on water purification, composting and bacteria use are revealed to the reader through the eyes of 6th grader Big B “Brett” Harrington as his city-life views and experiences are contrasted and challenged by the island’s environmentally-conscious culture.

Think of it as a kids book with meaning and purpose. Imagine for a moment if even a fraction of kids who read the Harry Potter books could read this story. Not only will their imagination be piqued, but also they will learn about a few of the basic and important issues that are threatening the environment.

Nui, is a healthy kids lifestyle brand that donates 50 percent of its beverage profits to children's health and environmental charities. The mission of the book is the same as the company's:  to encourage kids to improve their physical, social and environmental health. Their hope is that by telling these adventure stories, in a manner that kids can relate to, kids will gain a better understanding of these issues.
