This book is based on the episodes Pallet Party Panic, A Scare in the Air, Pokeball Peril, and The Lost Lapras.

It's good-bye to an old friend and hello to a new one in the biggest adventure of Ash's life! When Professor Oak sends Ash on a mission to the Orange Islands, surprises await the young Pokemon trainer at every turn. One member of Ash's team will say good-bye forever, maybe. A stranger will join the posse. But who is he really? And a gentle new Pokemon called Lapras is discovered-only it may perish without Ash's help. The first of the three new exciting adventures on the Orangle Islands!!!

All pokemon stories I find interesting and cute, especially the pictures. As with all pokemon books, Ash tries to win badges and catch pokemn; that is the basic storyline, which is ok on TV but not in text. The writing is probably for little children from the way it is, so it might be too easy for older readers. Personally, if I didn't watch the TV show I'd have difficulty comprehending what was going on.

When Professor Oak wanted Ash to do him an errand, it was fine to him. They were also told to go to an island and they have to take a blimp. Troubles have started when Team Rocket causes troubles. They also meet her Tracey. There is also a LOST LAPRAS in this story.

It is a bit weak but great after all. I don't like PKMN but I read widely so I'd say it's quite good. My advice is to read all the reviews before buying the book. But if you are foreign, I'd advice you to buy it at a local store and not from amazon.com but if you can wait a few weeks and want a nice, shiney book order it from amazon.com.
