Storm Singing and other Tangled Tasks

by Lari Don

Overview

A centaur, a selkie, a fairy and a phoenix — Helen has unusual friends. And in this incredible quest, they face some even stranger opponents, from mermaids to angry killer whales.

Helen must help Rona the selkie to win the most important contest of the ocean world, and stop the deep sea powers from going to war. But who is trying to sabotage the competition and why?

Can Helen and the fabled beasts find the real villain, and prevent the most devastating storm the world has ever seen?

The third thrilling installment of the best-selling Fabled Beast Chronicles, an exciting four-book adventure series starring creatures from myth and legend, introduces new fabled beasts from the wild north of Scotland.

Editorial Reviews

'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

'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 [Fabled Beast Chronicles] series and it does not disappoint. Highly recommended.'
