Kathy Mezei tells a delightful story of Cuthbert (son of Nellie of Loch Ness), who swims via the Northwest Passage to Hornby Island, off the British Columbia coast, where, in the deep sea caverns, and much to the terror of the local Merpeople, he takes up residence. A tale filled with adventure and great tenderness, one that brings the adventures of summer to life all year round.

The text is profusely illustrated by Anne Stratford’s whimsical and colourful pictures. A book children will read and re-read.
