Peter has heard of the legend of the Selkie seals who can turn into humans, but he can't believe it when he rescues a real, live Selkie from the oysterman's nets. The two become friends, and Selkie teaches Peter the language of the sea. But someone else has his eye on the Selkie, and danger threatens Peter and his new friend.
Seal Mother is a beautifully illustrated Selkie folktale told in verse. This rhythmical tale flows in and out like the waves of the ocean, bringing the sad tale of a seal out of her skin. Trapped on the land, in her human form, will the Seal-maiden ever find her stolen coat? Will she ever be able to return to her family under the sea?
