Ali lives with her Dad on a beautiful island with a busy fishing village. So busy in fact that, no matter how hard she tries, Ali can never persuade anyone to stop what they are doing and come exploring with her. That is until the morning everyone wakes to find ALL the fish have disappeared. Every. Last. One.

Funny, richly detailed and deeply atmospheric. Mystery and adventure with the joy of the natural world, reminding us all to stop and experience the true wonder that surrounds us.
