From the creators of The Girl and the Dinosaur comes a new picture book about imagination, storytelling, and the bond between grandparent and child.
 
Alina lives in a lighthouse by the sea: a home filled with the warmth of her grandmother’s magical stories. But Alina is worried. Granny’s memories and stories are starting to fade away, and she doesn’t know how to bring them back. Then, one day, Alina meets a mermaid on the rocks near the lighthouse—and she’s swept into a magical deep-sea adventure where she’ll learn how to keep stories and memories shining brightly.

This heartwarming picture book with lilting cadence, sweet rhyme, and whimsical art takes readers on a deep and fanciful journey to explore the importance of family, memory, imagination, and storytelling.
