Summary – Mercury Island When a group of friends discovers an old map in the school library, they set off on a daring adventure to find Mercury Island—a hidden place said to hold glowing rocks and strange inventions. Led by curious and clever Amir, the team lands on the island and quickly realizes that it’s no ordinary place. The island is full of secrets: strange animal tracks, glowing pools, and unusual machines left behind by an old inventor. But something is going wrong—the island is overheating, and the strange energy source may be out of control. The children must work together, solve puzzles, and make quick decisions to save the island before it’s too late. With teamwork, quick thinking, and courage, they fix the problem and learn the true secret of Mercury Island. The adventure ends with them vowing to protect the wonders they’ve discovered—and to always be ready for their next journey. |
