(2) 4-6 Ten-year-old Fiona returns to the Western Isles of Scotland to live with her grandparents and (secretly) search for her missing little brother. The story's action and intrigue begin right away, as Fiona is befriended by the chief of the gray seals and learns her clan's selkie history. The setting is vividly evoked, with fantasy elements woven seamlessly into the homey details of domestic island life.
