Meet Georgina ‘George’ Doherty, a ten-year-old with an adventurous spirit, living a carefree life with her father, Seamus, in Western Australia. Together with her best friend Mac, they roam the shores in search of pirates, buried treasure, and those in need of rescue.
But when a cyclone strikes Mirmouth, an astonishing secret emerges! Unearthed from the depths of the coastal cliffs, a fossilised cocoon cracks open, unveiling a strange creature!
George and Mac stumble upon the creature, thrusting them into a heart-pounding journey to protect their newfound friend from the prying eyes of the world. Will they succeed in keeping the creature hidden, or will their secret be exposed?
This is a classic tale of lonely city child moves to the seaside and encounters a sea creature from the deep past. A lovely debut by Suzanne Ingelbrecht showing a slice of 1970s WA mid-west childhood with delightful scenes of small-town life and the stunning Tumblagooda sandstone cliffs.
