Book Description
An underwater country full of mythical creatures lived in the middle of the ocean, deep inside the darkest parts. There were mermaids, sea turtles, octopuses, and a beautiful sea dragon named Drako living in this country, which was unlike any other. Each of these animals has its own special skills, and the lessons of working together, being kind, and celebrating differences have shaped their lives. People know mermaids for their beautiful voices and love of music. They lived in the middle of the country below the sea. Marin was one of them, and her voice could calm the roughest seas. Marina's voice once led a lost fish named Finn back to safety after a seahorse named Sammy asked her to. Sammy went up to Marina and asked her to help him find his brave friend Finn, who had gone into a cave deep in the water that wasn't supposed to be there and hadn't come back. Because she was scared, Marina agreed to use her special voice to help Finn get back home safely. Marina's words cut a bright path that led Finn back to the coral reef he knew and put him in touch with Sammy again. Finn and Sammy's bond grew stronger, and they never went far from home without being with each other. One of the old and wise sea turtles that lived in the deeper parts of the water was Terrance. He wore a shell with pretty designs that showed how the water had changed over time. Oliver was a young octopus who wanted to know what his fate was. Terrance told him to follow his dreams and see the wonders of the deep ocean. Through his art, Oliver brought joy to the underwater kingdom by painting bright pictures on the ocean floor. He did this while keeping Terrance's knowledge close to his heart. Over time, the creatures that lived under the sea continued to live together and share their knowledge and skills, turning the ocean into a thriving and diverse society. But then there was a big storm on the water that looked like it would destroy everything in its way. A brave sea dragon named Drako showed up in the middle of this disaster. Drako sang a song of peace and calm because he knew how to calm storms and control currents. The storm finally calmed down, and the underwater kingdom was saved. The animals in the underwater kingdom got together to sing a special song to honor Drako's bravery and kindness. That song that echoed over the water made them think of how strong friendship can be and how magical the sea was. So, the mythical animals lived happily underwater, appreciating their individual skills and the lessons they had learned from each other over the course of their lives. In their world of magic and wonder, every day was a journey, and they loved every living thing. They lived happily ever after in the beautiful world of mythical animals, which shows how beautiful the ocean still is. The Story's Start: Under the seas, in the middle of the ocean's depths that no one could reach, there was a magical and amazing world. Mythical animals of all kinds and sizes lived in this underwater area that was unlike any other. There were amazing things these people could do, and their stories were woven into the fabric of the aquatic world. Mermaids were some of the most beautiful creatures in this watery world. The beautiful music was being played by these graceful beings, whose upper bodies looked like ethereal humans and their bottom bodies looked like smooth, iridescent fish. They got together on bright coral reefs to sing beautiful songs, with voices that blended together like the sweetest harmony. Each mermaid had a unique voice, and their melodies could make people feel strong feelings, calm rough seas, and even heal sea creatures that were hurt. There was one mermaid that stood out from the rest. Marin was her name, and her voice was magical in a way that no one else could match. The ocean seemed to hold its breath when Marina sang because of her beautiful voice. People thought that her melodies could heal hurt hearts and her singing could calm even the roughest storms. She was a marine guardian, and the people who lived in the underwater kingdom found comfort and hope in her songs. Another unique species did well in the ocean's depths: sea turtles, which are very old and smart. These huge beings were known for being smart and able to see into the past and future. Terrance was a very old sea turtle, and his shell had beautiful patterns on it that showed how the water had changed over time. Everyone who went to him for help respected him. Oliver, a little octopus who was very interested, came up to Terrance one day, full of questions. Oliver asked with his eight quick arms, "Terrance, can you tell me what the future holds for me?"

Eliza can’t imagine enjoying the real world as much as she loves her digital community. Then Wallace Warland transfers to her school and Eliza begins to wonder if a life offline might be worthwhile. But when Eliza’s secret is accidentally shared with the world, everything she’s built—her story, her relationship with Wallace, and even her sanity—begins to fall apart. With pages from Eliza’s webcomic, as well as screenshots from Eliza’s online forums, this book will appeal to fans of Noelle Stevenson’s Nimona and Rainbow Rowell’s Fangirl.
