When Jenny McGilvery goes away, her best friend is swept off by a mysterious sailor into a world where nothing is certain-islands of buried treasure and horned "tuffalo," an undersea mountain guarded by grasping creatures and rescued by a fierce little "skiing sturgeon." But every treasure fades back into the sea, leaving only what really matters: memory, laughter, and friendship. Told in a lilting, dreamlike refrain, this is a story about the elastic, magical hours of childhood.
