Sea Dog Rescue

Can a sea dog baker and a brave merpup solve the mystery of the sunken fishing boat before it's too late?

When Walter the baker (and brave sea dog!) discovers his friend Big Boris is being blamed for sinking a village fishing boat, he knows something's not right. Together with Mira, a merpup, Walter must swim through clues and uncover the truth before his friend's reputation is sunk forever.

From award-winning illustrator Astrid Sheckels comes another delightful tale in the Sea Dog series that will have children ages 4-8 diving into important discussions about friendship, justice, and the courage to seek the truth.
