Far out to sea and deep below the whispering waves lives a merman called Nen. Nen spends his days exploring his underwater kingdom, but something is missing: his heart is empty. So, Nen ventures to the forbidden world above and it is here that he meets Ernest, a lonely fisherman. But can two people from different worlds be together and what will happen when a terrifying storm gathers? A lyrical, beautiful celebration of love, acceptance and faith, with a gentle message about how we treat our oceans, and each other.

large and small. Mrs Noah wore a brand-new coat, with a hood and a
cape - and very deep pockets. Lots of pockets." When Mr Noah builds
the ark, he makes two lists - one for all the animals who will come
on board and one for those troublesome creatures he will leave
behind. Meanwhile, Mrs Noah gets out her sewing machine and makes a
coat with very deep pockets. Lots of pockets.

Mrs Noah sang to the children when they woke in the morning. She
sang as she worked in the garden, growing flowers and growing food.
She sang lullabies at night to help the children sail into sleep
"If you want to learn to sing," Mrs Noah tells the children, "first
you must learn how to listen. Close your eyes, tight shut, and open
your ears, wide, wide." At first the children hear only silence,
then birds call, bees hum - and they hear the song of the garden.
That night, Mr Noah makes a surprise present for the family so that
they can all sleep together out in the garden. Then, at dawn
there's the best surprise of all - the magical sound of the dawn
chorus, led by the phoenix. On a joyful new day, Mrs Noah's
birthday, there is birdsong in the garden and a future full of
shared song for Mr and Mrs Noah and the children.
