Montagueo's passion for STEM naturally integrates into everything he does, including the creation of the Ocean Bowl series. "Becoming a change agent for our world starts with our children. The mission is to evangelise, engage and promote literacy, conservation and S.T.E.M. Keeping their attention has become a greater challenge. Engaging them early with artistic S.T.E.M. (science, technology, engineering and math) activities; I believe we will inspire a greater future for our communities."
Ocean Bowl,
Montagueo's second book, is slated for release this holiday season. It will feature Odon, Oria's Right Whale father, and the story of the Ocean Bowl Championship. It all kicks off when a teenage fisherman gives Odon a ball as a gift for saving his life in a really bad storm.
Montagueo's first book,
Orias' Rippin Adventure
, explores the underwater world of an exuberant Snubfin Dolphin, Oria, who's zest for life leads her into a heart-pumping adventure that requires problem-solving and teamwork to survive.
