This is a story through the eyes of a schoolgirl, Mielle Rose, and her Schnauzer Morgen, who is her constant companion and curiously present in each illustration. The text highlights a school aquarium and terrarium, the Ballard Locks at Lake Washington with its salmon ladders and our planet's environment, and how these attract Mielle Rose to study Marine Biology. Mielle Rose learns that thoughtful study is needed to become a Marine Biologist. Maybe I'll Be A Marine Biologist Book 2 in the When I Grow Up Series
