To Danny’s amazement they were not angry. Instead, they started to laugh. George said, “Thanks for the unexpected bath!” Bess, looking at the skiff, remarked, “I guess we’ll have to walk home.” “Or wait for high tide,” Danny told her. “Instead of waiting, however, you could walk to that key over there and investigate the wildlife. It isn’t far from here.” “Does anyone live on it?” Nancy asked. “No, it’s uninhabited.” Bess chose to stay with Danny and dry out in the hot sun, but Nancy and George were interested in seeing the key, so they sloshed through the shallow water to the mangrove-lined island. When the girls reached it, they scrambled over roots and coral rocks. There was nothing to see but bushes and trees. “It’s a real jungle!” George said. “I’ll say it is,” Nancy agreed. “Look over at that mangrove.” She pointed. George stared in amazement. A fish was climbing up the bark! The two girls watched to see how high it would go. To their astonishment it disappeared in the leafy foliage above.
