Xena and Xeno Xemes Arfaras

A family of arctic seagulls known as Xemes face tragedy when they are forbidden to enter their winter migratory home in South America. Real science meets fiction in this ecological drama. It is presented in poetic/prophetic-style stanzas. The furious falcons become the border patrols. This is the 15th story published in the Zany Zebra Collection. The masterpiece of the story is creative students are challenged to write the ending. In the tradition of the Collection authored by Dr. April Arfaras, this story includes an activity and glossary to enhance the interactive learning experience.
