Clarice Bean meets Finding Dory in this laugh-out-loud diary set under the sea!
Join Darcy Dolphin and friends for some underwater adventures! In the second book of the series, Darcy makes a new friend. But there’s something fishy about Coral Crab … Meanwhile on the reef, a pebble-collecting craze hits the school and Darcy needs a little bit of magic to help her win the talent show. The second in a brilliantly funny new illustrated fiction series for boys and girls aged age 6 years and above. Perfect for fans of The Unbelievable Top Secret Diary of Pig, Barry Loser, Wigglesbottom Primary by Pamela Butchart and the Daisy books.

I liked reading this book it is all about a dolphin called Darcy and a crab called Coral who has come from rockpool and Darcy’s headteacher told them because it is summer all the water in rockpool school has dried up so all the pupils are coming to our school until they get their water back. I would recommend this book to people who love reading adventure books.

This book was a fiction book and my favourite characters were Darcy and Coral. This book is about an underwater school called Ripple Reef School. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes sea creatures or animals and the sea. It is a short chapter book with lots of very good illustrations.

I would definitely recommend this book because I liked the brain coral, which Coral treated as her special toy. The names of the diary entries were really interesting like Monkfishday and you will love the surprise ending.

You should read this book because it tells you to persevere even when things are hard. I recommend this book to people who are looking for belief in them selves

I would recommend this book because the days are different for example, Monkfish day is Monday, Tuna day is Tuesday and Swordfish day is Saturday. The story is about a Dolphin who has a pen pal called Coral who is a crab. The Coral Reef has been destroyed, so Coral comes to stay with Darcy. Coral is very snappy but in the end you find out why she is snappy and it's because she was growing out of her shell and finally finds a new one.

This book is about a dolphin who has been given a pen pal called coral. At first Darcy thinks she's a zombie crab, but they become friends and get up to all sorts of mischief...
