Thrilling and spirited, the Fabled Beast Chronicles continues to deliver another adventurous tale. In this, the third book in the series, Helen and her friends leave safety far behind to support Rona the selkie in her seaborne quest to stop a dreadful war. It’s interesting to hear the tale told on occasion from Rona’s point of view when she departs from the group to complete her own mission. This series is about courage, teamwork and friendship, so when things don't run smoothly, when the going gets tough and some difficult decisions have to be made, stop and think - would you be as brave and daring as Helen? ~ Liz Robinson
If this is your first foray into this bewitching new world, start with First Aid for Fairies followed by Wolf Notes and Other Musical Mishaps as it’s best to read the books in order to understand how the companions met and became friends.

Lari Don Press Reviews
'This book will certainly have you singing up a storm...Tales of giant jellyfish, killer whales and a spectacular storm are just some of the delights waiting for you and your class in these pages. This is the third adventure of the First Aid for Fairies Series and it does not disappoint. Highly recommended.' --Top Class Primary
'Don gives her characters complicated feelings and conflicts. They may be fairies and unicorns, but the choices they make are never straight forward, and their reactions will at times seem very familiar to human readers. Highly recommended for ' junior schools, or as a read-aloud for younger children.' --The School Librarian, Autumn 2011
