This book is about
The children go for a school trip to Seabay House for a week.
During the trip, the children find a seagull that is covered with oil and can't fly. They meet Mrs. Honey, who tries to clean the seagull.
Mr. Honey takes the teachers and the class to Green Island to see the otters. The children find a cave with toxic waste hidden in it. Then they see people bringing more toxic waste to the cave.
The children and adults go to their boat and take the other people's boat too. They call the police, who take the people away.
At the end of the week, there is a party and a photographer takes a photo of the class for the newspaper.
The main characters are
Mr. Johnson, Mrs. May, Mrs. Honey, Biff, Chip, Wilf, Wilma and Nadim.
My favourite part of the book is
When the police catch the people that are dumping the toxic waste.
I would also like to say
I would like to visit Seabay House.
