Roscoe and the Pelican Rescue — Lynn Rowe Reed

Two cousins learn about how to care for local animals after the Gulf Coast oil spill.

Tony is expecting the best summer ever! He'll even get to visit Cousin Addison, who lives right in Louisiana near the beach. But the cousins find that the local beach is closed and full of brown balls of goo. Worse yet, Roscoe, Addison's retriever, finds an oil-covered pelican. However, Aunt Olivia has been trained to work a rescue operation, and Tony and Addison learn how to help oil-covered animals.

Information about the Deepwater Horizon accident and its affect on the Gulf Coast will be included, along with information on animal rescue efforts.
