Justin could almost see her face as she held out her ivory hand beckoning him to come to her. Who was this mysterious creature, and why was it always the same dream? It was the summer of Justin’s fifteenth birthday and his dreams were about to become reality. Justin Willows was born with a very special gift. He had a unique ability with his sketching and painting to capture nature, particularly the oceans, unlike anything the world had seen before. He was about to embark on an adventure that would change his life and lead him on a crusade to protect the oceans and all of the mysteries they held.
This book is a great read for everyone from adolescent to adult. It is a tender story about a boy who discovers his destiny and follows his dream.
