River Rescue: A must-read adventure for young heroes
Emma, a brave 14-year-old, faces a big problem: to clear her mother Claire’s name. Claire reports that the Riverside Ice Cream Factory is pouring dirty water into the river. But since she doesn’t get enough evidence (证据), the factory says she is lying and damaging its reputation (名誉) — so she ends up in jail.
“We’ll save Mum and the river,” Emma tells her brother, Max. Together, they come up with a plan. During next week’s school trip to the factory, they’ll pour green food colouring (色素) into the waste pipes (管道).
“When the green water flows out,” Max says, “the whole town will see it.”

On the big day, the two children quietly leave the tour group. “There!” Max points to a machine with the words “Water Treatment Unit”. During a jail visit, Claire tells Max and Emma that the machine doesn’t deal with the wastewater but is actually connected to hidden pipes to pour the dirty water straight into the river. Max opens the cover and says in a low voice, “Do it now!” With their hearts beating faster, they pour in the food colouring.
BEEEEEP! A loud alarm rings. “Something’s wrong in Section 5!” a guard shouts over the loudspeaker ...
How will they escape (逃脱)? Will their plan work? And will Claire come home soon? Follow this exciting adventure to find out how Emma and Max fight for family — and for what’s right!
