Martha was raised on her nana's stories. Even if no one else believes them, Martha knows that they're magic. Now those stories are helping Martha hold things together when everything around her is falling apart – out-of-towners moving into her family's old house, her nana's mysterious illness, and the tourists flooding the town who don't seem to care about the sea or the animals it's home to.
But Martha has found one creature who understands – a black seal pup that seems to appear whenever Martha needs it most. Could she be the key to fixing everything that's wrong, or will Martha need to fight her way through the storm herself?
Illustrated by the award-winning Sharon King-Chai, Sarah Ann Juckes' emotional novel follows a young girl trying to protect her family and her community, who must learn that not all changes are bad. For fans of The Last Bear and Julia and the Shark.
