Wish submitted by:

Mia is a bright, articulate, and kind young lady who lives with her great-uncle and his wife in an informal kinship care arrangement. She is a curious and active kid with a wide range of interests and a fun personality. Mia loves fish, marine animals, and just about anything related to the ocean. She enjoys learning new things and is especially interested in life under the sea. She is thoughtful, intelligent, and loves exploring subjects that interest her. She is also very active and enjoys basketball, softball, and spending time outside on her skateboard. Mia has a great mix of curiosity, energy, and independence. She is caring, adventurous, and an all-around cool kid who brings a lot of personality to everything she does.

This book would be an amazing gift for Mia because it would let her explore her love of the ocean in greater depth. She is fascinated by fish, manta rays, and marine life, and she loves learning new facts about the underwater world. The large, colorful photographs and detailed information would give her something she could spend hours looking through, learning from, and returning to again and again. It would be a wonderful way to encourage her curiosity and give her a resource that feels special, grown-up, and connected to something she truly loves.
