There has always been something unusual about Magnus Fin, a school misfit. On his eleventh birthday Magnus throws a message in a bottle out to sea, wishing for a best friend and to be more brave – and he gets a lot more than he bargained for. Magnus discovers that he is half selkie – part seal, part human – and his selkie family urgently need his help. Can Magnus save his new-found family from the evil force threatening all the ocean’s creatures? And will he find the friend he has always dreamed of?

REVIEW

‘Read this with my eight-year-old daughter and this is her review: “Awesome, awesome, awesome! It’s the best book—if you love magical creatures, you should get it.”
It’s a great read aloud book for this age. Highly enjoyable for kids and parents.’ –Jessica

 

‘I thought this was cute story about a boy who discovers who true heritage, makes friends, and finds himself in the process. I loved the Scottish aspects of the story (it takes place in Scotland, involves Scottish lore, and is written by a Scottish author) because they definitely added a certain richness to the need for Magnus’s heritage. I’d have to say that my favorite character was Tarkin–he made me smile everytime he talked. Something about him really charmed me. Overall, I liked this book.’ Liz
