The story

11-year-old Nim Rusoe lives with her widower marine biologist father Jack on a secret island in the South Pacific. Nim's mother, Emily, died when she was eaten by a blue whale, after it was scared by a ship called The Buccaneer. Nim has several native animals for company: Selkie the sea lion, Fred the bearded dragon, Chica the sea turtle, and Galileo the pelican, and is an avid reader of the "Alex Rover" adventure book series.
