Splash is super afraid to speak in front of groups. Her brain freezes, she begins to shake, and she can't breathe. Is something wrong with her? And now Donovan is sick. He has a high temperature and has lost his voice. But he has to teach a group of kids about the ocean in just four days. His twin sister, Cassie, needs Splash to step up and help out. But can she overcome her fears? Splash learns that she is not the only person afraid of public speaking. Many famous people, including presidents and actors, have faced this fear. With the help of her friends, she learns ways to prepare and calm herself for events. It isn't easy, and surprises happen along the way that make it harder. And it's not just Donovan's temperature that is rising. The crew of the Bubble gets an urgent request for help when an ocean heat wave hits Bodega Bay. What is causing it? What is the heat doing to the animals that live in the ocean? And is there anything we can do about it? Along the way, Splash and her friends go kayak-camping, learn about bioluminescence, go digging for clams to make clam chowder, and much more. They also visit the Marine Mammal Center to check up on the baby seal they found entangled on the first part of their voyage.
