Welcome to Books By My Friends, Betsy! Please tell us about your new book JEWELS OF THE SEA, THE HUNT FOR FLOATING TREASURE.
JH: What’s the blurb for your book?
BFF: Jewels of the Sea… The Hunt for Floating Treasure tells the magical tale of Amy and Bart who go on a treasure hunt with their Grandfather.

Diatoms are also priceless for what they do for life on earth.
