ORT:TREE GREAT LEV 9 SEA STORIES

Beneath the waves, green mermen hoard their treasure and selkies swim with seal.  Two Scottish folk tales about the sea and its secrets.

The sea is a powerful force of nature; once the salt gets into your blood it is hard to return to land. When a selkie is trapped in her maiden form by a lovestruck human, she pines for her seal-skin and the embrace of the waves. Her family may be on land, but her heart is with the sea. But not everyone is destined to live underwater ... Can Sylvie and her brother escape the watery clutches of Merman Rosmer?
