Customer Reviews

What a charming tale!

I bought this book for my daughter, and I know she is just going to love it. Jackie Morris's stunning illustrations really bring this tale to life. It's something a bit different from the usual fairytales.

Selkie tale of beauty and depth

Upon opening the package for this book I was struck with how absolutely gorgeous the illustrations were. The story was even better, a lyrical, almost poetic tale of love, separation and hope. Any fan of selkie legends or excellent Childrens books, would do well to have a copy for themselves!!
