Merryn's Journey

“This is a story about the nature of heroism and how far we will go to help those we love.” —Author Brian Hastings
 
In a little cottage, where the cliffs meet the waves, lived a young girl named Merryn . . .
Each day her father went out to sea to catch fish while Merryn tended her garden. And every night he came home and sang her a lullaby about a mysterious world that lay below the waves—a world of serpents, merrows, monsters, and a sunken city made of gold. Then, one day, everything changed: her father didn’t return from the sea. When Merryn dreams that he’s in danger, she knows there’s only one thing to do: she must dive beneath the waves and save him. Based on the new Song of the Deep video game, this magical picture book takes children on a strange and beautiful adventure.
