Find your voice in the waves in a heartfelt and hopeful story of family, friendship, and learning to accept change from the critically-acclaimed partnership, Sarah Ann Juckes and Sharon King-Chai, selected for Waterstones Children's Book of the Month with The Night Animals.

Martha was raised on her nanas stories. Even if no one else believes them, Martha knows that theyre magic. Now those stories are helping Martha hold things together when everything around her is falling apart out-of-towners moving into her familys old house, her nanas mysterious illness, and the tourists flooding the town who dont seem to care about the sea or the animals its 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 ofThe Last BearandJulia and the Shark.
