# The Selkie's Daughter - Hardcover

by **Linda Crotta Brennan** (Author)

**A cozy, richly imagined fantasy where a young selkie girl must save her family from a vengeful king.**

Brigit knows all the old fisherman songs and legends by heart: sea goddess, warriors, and people who are not quite human. But Brigit also knows the truth. It's evident in the webbing between her fingers-_webbing that must be cut_. She's the daughter of a selkie. A truth she must keep secret from everyone.

But there is another secret growing in the village. A terrible one that will invite the wrath of the Great Selkie, bringing storm, sickness, and death. To protect those she loves, Brigit must find a way to Sule Skerrie, the land of selkies, to confront the Great Selkie and bring the truth--all of it--into the light.

Like sitting by a warm fireplace, _The Selkie's Daughter_ is an imaginative fantasy, steeped in Celtic mythology and set in Nova Scotia. Debut Linda Crotta Brennan has crafted a magical portrait of a brave girl coming into her own. Perfect for fans of mermaids and Studio Ghibli-esque stories.

**A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection**
